The Saudi newspaper "Al-Madina" reported on Wednesday that one of the local football league clubs made a massive offer to sign Kylian Mbappe, who is set to leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the current season. The newspaper wrote on its account on the "X" platform: "A Saudi team has made a big contract offer to the French star Kylian Mbappe."
The newspaper did not reveal the name of the club that made the offer for Mbappe, but it confirmed that the Saudi club's desire to sign the French star, whose contract with Paris ends on June 30, is aimed at benefiting from his services, especially for the upcoming international participation next season. This led many followers to speculate that Saudi Al Hilal is the one that made this extraordinary offer.
This news came as a surprise amid a consensus among most global sports newspapers and websites that Mbappe's next destination would be Real Madrid. Football transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano announced that in 2023, Mbappe preferred not to enter into any negotiations regarding a transfer to the Saudi league and was fully focused on Real Madrid. Last Friday, Mbappe announced his departure from Paris Saint-Germain at the end of this season without disclosing his next destination.
