Kylian Mbappé breaks his silence on Al Hilal rumours

On Monday, Saudi club Al Hillary made a reported €300M bid to Paris Saint-Germain for their stay striker Kylian Mbappé. Further reports emerged that the French club have accepted the Saudi bid, granting them permission to speak to the player. 

However, it seems a final decision from the player will not be in favor of playing for Al Hilal, as he has publicly declared that his dream is to play for Real Madrid and especially when the Spanish club have lost Karim Benzema to another Saudi club this summer, this is the perfect time for Kylian to join.

There was no news of Kylian Mbappé around the latest news until Monday evening when he quoted a tweet of NBA star Giannis Antetokounpo saying: “Al Hilal you can take me. I look like Kylian Mbappe.” This was linked to the huge amounts involved in the Saudi bid, which amounted to the 2018 World Cup winner receiving around 770 million euros a year as salary. 

Kylian Mbappé quoted the tweet with 13 laughing emojis, his only public reaction since the news broke. There are many interesting days ahead. PSG want to cash in on the player, who has publicly stated that he wants to continue.
