Saudi Arabia’s Al Hilal has offered Messi €400 million per season to join the club, Marca reported.
The offer is double the amount Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo is being paid by Al Hilal’s rival Al Nassr – €200 million.
However, Messi hasn’t yet decided which way to go after his stint with the French club Paris Saint-Germain gets over.
Reportedly, Messi wants to stay in Europe, which makes it highly unlikely for Al Hilal to land him.
What club in Europe he’ll play with is still a mystery with Barcelona and PSG both wanting to get the football legend back.
Barcelona, so far, hasn’t made any offer to him and PSG, which has made an offer hasn’t heard back from him.
Messi had joined Paris Saint-Germain on a two-year deal at the start of the 2021-22 season after spending 17 years with Barcelona with an option for an extra year if both parties agreed.
Relations between Messi and the Qatari-backed club have gradually deteriorated to the point that the Argentine superstar, whose dream of winning the World Cup was realised in Qatar in December, was jeered by PSG fans following a Ligue 1 home defeat against Lyon on Sunday.
