Reports are emerging that football legend Lionel Messi may be offered a whopping $400 million contract to play in the Saudi Pro League. This potential deal would see the Argentinian superstar earn almost double what his rival Cristiano Ronaldo is currently earning as a player for Al-Nassr. Negotiations are reportedly being conducted by Messi’s father, Jorge, and his agents, as they explore potential options for Messi’s future.
However, Messi is currently serving a two-week suspension from his current club, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), due to an unauthorized trip to Saudi Arabia. This suspension could potentially cause him to miss PSG’s next two games. Additionally, there have been rumors circulating that Messi’s contract with PSG will not be renewed, which has only fueled speculation about where he might play next.
The Saudi Pro League is apparently eager to lure in the football superstar, and is reportedly offering him a staggering $400 million per year deal. Talks are ongoing with Messi’s agents, including his father Jorge, ahead of the expiry of his contract with PSG in June. Although it is unclear which Saudi club Messi may join, Al-Nassr’s rivals Al-Hilal have been suggested as a potential destination.
While Messi has not yet commented publicly on his suspension or the potential move to the Saudi Pro League, fans around the world are eagerly anticipating his next move. Some PSG supporters have even booed him during the team’s inconsistent season, which could potentially factor into his decision making process.
It remains to be seen what the future holds for Lionel Messi, but one thing is clear, the Saudi Pro League is willing to pay big bucks to secure his services. With negotiations ongoing, it is only a matter of time before we find out where this footballing superstar will end up next.
