A press report revealed the incapacity of Lionel Messi, a Paris Saint-Germain player, to join Saudi club Al-Hilal soon.
It is worth noting that the Argentine star has a contract with PSG that expires in the summer of 2023.
Lionel has yet to decide on his stance on a contract extension with the Parisian club, which has caused controversy among the player’s fans, especially after some reports suggested that Al Hilal wanted to sign him.
After Paris Saint-Germain’s elimination from the Champions League, the Parisian club’s fans lashed out at Messi over repeated defeats in the European Championship and demanded that he quit and move away from the club’s project.
On the other hand, the presence of Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi victory made the rest of the Saudi clubs ready to sign European stars.

The Al-Weam newspaper stressed that Lionel was asking for 600 million euros for a season with Al-Hilal from Saudi Arabia.
The same source stated that the leader offered the player only 200 million euros per season.
The source said that Al-Hilal’s management has raised the offer for the Argentine star to 350 million euros per season.
It has been decided that Lionel will decide his future in the coming period, whether it be an extension with Paris Saint-Germain, considering an offer from Al-Hilal and Inter Miami, or a return to Barcelona.
