In the details of the news, the Saudi Al-Madina newspaper said that the Argentine star, Lionel Messi, had already decided to contract with Al-Hilal Club, as all agreements between the two parties are currently being terminated at the level of contractual and financial terms.
There is nothing left but the official announcement of that deal at the end of the current season, as Messi will sign a set of other agreements regarding the promotion of the Kingdom’s file in order to host the 2030 World Cup.
-The contract of the 2022 World Cup holder with Argentina, accompanied by his team, Paris Saint-Germain, ends at the end of June, as he will not renew his contract and will leave for free. He had offers from Spanish Barcelona and American clubs, but he preferred the Saudi Al-Hilal offer and will join him.
And the newspaper concluded in its report that the reason for Messi’s approval was that Al-Hilal Club had raised its offer to about half a billion euros annually after Barcelona entered the negotiating line to try to get him back the Bolga, but he refused and agreed to join the Saudi leader.
