As the summer transfer window draws to a close and the new season approaches, the battle for top players is intensifying. One player who has become the subject of major scrutiny is Kylian Mbappe. The young French star finds himself in a confusing situation, as he does not want to extend his contract with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), but the club is unwilling to let him go for free next season when his contract expires.

This impasse has led to a frenzy of speculation, with various teams vying for Mbappe’s signature. Amidst this complex situation, a surprising offer has emerged from the rising soccer powerhouse–Saudi Arabia. This absurd contract even shadows the total net worth of one of the most successful soccer players of all time, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Saudi Arabia has been making waves in the soccer world ever since their team, Al-Nassr, successfully signed Cristiano Ronaldo. The Saudi Pro League has since managed to attract other top talents, including Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante. Now, Al-Hilal, a Saudi side that had previously attempted to bring Lionel Messi to their ranks but failed, has set its sights on Mbappe.

According to reports, Al-Hilal is prepared to offer a staggering transfer fee of around $330 million to PSG. But that’s not all. The Saudi club is also willing to tempt Mbappe with a salary package of an eye-watering $770 million over the course of just one year. This mind-boggling offer threatens to overshadow the immense wealth accumulated by Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo’s net worth currently stands at around $500 million, while Mbappe’s net worth is estimated to be $180 million. From a player’s perspective, the financial aspect of the deal cannot be ignored. On top of that, the team is also open to letting him leave after one year for free. This allows him to join Real Madrid, the team that has been leading the rumors for the French sensation’s next potential club.
