Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal reportedly made a 300 million Euros bid for PSG striker Kylian Mbappe.
Paris Saint-Germain officially confirmed having received a world record bid of 300-million-euro ($333 million) for their superstar forward Kylian Mbappe from Saudi club Al Hilal. Following the bid, PSG also allowed Mbappe to have a chat with the Saudi Pro League club despite rumours that the player has already agreed a deal with Spanish giants Real Madrid. As NBA star Giannis Antetokounmpo asked Al-Hilal to sign him instead for such a grand fee, as he looks similar to Mbappe, the PSG forward also took to Twitter and shared his reaction. https://t.co/hKhqYXC7tH
"Al Hilal you can take me. I look like Kylian Mbappe," Antetokounmpo tweeted. Reacting to the NBA star's tweet, Mbappe posted several laughing emoticons.
Real Madrid -- the club widely thought to be leading the chase for the most potent forward in world football -- are among a number of other clubs to have expressed an interest, the source said.
Al Hilal have made a formal offer by letter, the source said, but such a transfer could only be made with the agreement of Mbappe who has never expressed an interest in moving to the fast-growing Saudi league.
