Paris Saint-Germain have accepted Al Hilal’s world-record £259m bid for Kylian Mbappe.
As a result of this, the French champions gave the Saudi club permission to speak to Mbappe.
The club recently put the superstar up for sale, making it clear they only want to work with committed players.
The club consequently left him out of their squad for the pre-season tour of Japan and South Korea.
Al Hilal’s record-breaking offer is one of many PSG has received.
They have been approached with a mix of offers for Mbappe, including cash-plus players, but Al Hilal have shown their intention by tabling the world-record bid.
The forward has one year remaining on his contract and is unwilling to sign a new one, with PSG believing he has already agreed to join Real Madrid for free next summer.
Real Madrid is also interested in the French forward.
Earlier today, reports confirmed that Al Hilal had made a shocking, world-record bid of €300 million to sign Real Madrid target Kylian Mbappe this summer.
Apart from being ready to shell out such a massive sum on the French superstar’s signing, the Saudi Arabian giants also offer him an enormous contract worth €700 million per season. It would also have the provision for him to leave for Real Madrid in 2024.
