American basketball legend Giannis Antitokombo has commented on the possibility of Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe moving to the Saudi league next season.
Giannis wrote through his official Twitter account: “Club Al Hilal… You can sign me because I look a lot like Mbappe.”
In turn, the French star responded to the message of the Greek basketball star and republished the tweet, accompanied by 13 laughable symbols, expressing his mockery of the current rumors.
While Al Hilal’s Twitter account reposted the tweet, it said, “Welcome as a fan of Giannis.”
Join us as a fan, Giannis 😎#AlHilal 💙 https://t.co/oemNQN4J8s

Press reports said that Al-Hilal had made an offer of 300 million euros to sign Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain amid news that the French player’s annual salary could exceed 700 million euros.
Mbappé, 24, will miss PSG’s summer tour of Japan and South Korea following a decision by club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.
Al Khulaifi kept the Parisian star in France until his fate was sealed, refusing to honor Mbappe’s wish to remain with the team without a contract extension that expires in the summer of 2024.
