With Lionel Messi’s contract set to expire at the end of the season, the Argentine reportedly wants €600 million if he is to follow in Cristiano Ronaldo’s footsteps and make his way to Saudi Arabia. SLInt MORE:
, Messi has not yet ruled out a move to the Middle East and is open to joining Al Hilal, but only on the condition that he is compensated with a deal worth €600 million .
At the beginning of the year, Ronaldo joined Saudi Pro League side Al Nass, inking the biggest contract in football history worth a reported €400 million , but should Al Hilal successfully land the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner, he would blow his long-time rival's deal out of the water. The 35-year-old is currently on the books of Paris Saint-Germain and following yet another disappointing UEFA Champions League campaign with Les Parisiens, which saw them exit at the round of 16 stage for a second successive season, perhaps the Rosario native would be open to a move to the Saudi Arabia topflight.
The Argentine will have fond memories of the gulf having achieved football immortality there when he helped his nation secure their third FIFA World Cup title, cementing his place as one of the game’s all-time greats. Should Messi make the move to Al Nassr’s rivals, it will mark the latest chapter in what has been arguably one of the game’s most captivating player battles.
