The Saudi Pro League’s interest in Mbappe is not a recent development. Last summer, Al-Hilal handed a world-record $300 million bid for the French sensation. An offer PSG was reportedly willing to accept. However, Mbappe’s strong commitment to remain in the French capital thrashed any potential move.
Real Madrid’s hopes dashed?
For Real Madrid, the revelation of Saudi Arabia’s persistent pursuit of Mbappe comes as a significant blow. Los Blancos has been long considered as the frontrunners for Mbappe’s signature. However, with the transfer window closing in and Saudi’s ambitions, Mbappe’s future adds an unexpected layer of suspense. The question that lingers is: Will Mbappe, at the age of 24, consider a move to the Middle East or Real Madrid?
