Lionel Messi Transfer News: In Saudi Arabia, Lionel Messi met with club executives and received a transfer offer
Lionel Messi Transfer News: The Argentine forward Lionel Messi was reportedly in Saudi Arabia in recent days for transfer discussions. According to rumours, the PSG star is in the Middle East because Al-Hilal has made a bid to acquire him.
Messi reportedly met with Al-Hilal to explore a move, as reported by Rudy Galetti. The great player of Paris Saint-Germain is approaching the conclusion of his contract and is considering his future possibilities.
Barcelona hopes to reunite with Messi and is working tirelessly to meet La Liga requirements. League officials allegedly shot down their feasibility study and are now asking that the team finance about €200 million.
With a return to Camp Nou now out of the question, Messi may instead go to Saudi Arabia in an effort to renew his rivalry with Cristiano Ronaldo.

He was quoted by ArabNews as saying: “It’s difficult for Messi to go back to Barcelona after PSG. PSG are a rich club and they have a clear plan. What I think now is that an Arabian club will, in a few months, sign Messi. And I can tell you which one: I’m sure he’ll go to Al-Hilal.”
While beating Cristiano Ronaldo 2-0 last month, Al-Hilal fans chanted Messi’s name as a mockery. On the day when the Portuguese superstar was introduced in Saudi Arabia, the club also offered ‘Messi 10’ shirts.
