Kylian Mbappe’s transfer saga appears far from finished amidst the silence from the player's camp.

Since sending a letter to the PSG hierarchy in early June, stating his desire not to extend his contract at the club, the French champions have made their desires clear regarding the forward – extend your current contract or be sold this summer.

Amidst the reports of Mbappe having a verbal agreement with his dream club, Real Madrid, for the summer of 2024, tonnes of clubs have made clear their interest in signing the PSG star.

Amongst these numerous clubs are Saudi Professional League side Al Hilal.

According to reports from Marca, the Saudi club have sent in a record bid in the region of €300 million to the French champions.

The offer includes the potential for the striker to earn €700 million in wages for a year before he potentially moves to Real Madrid on a free transfer next summer.

Goal further reports that PSG have accepted this bid and now awaits a response from the camp of the player.

Al-Hilal send delegation to Mbappe

Further reports have emerged stating that a delegation representing Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal will arrive in Paris this week as they try to complete a deal for the Paris Saint Germain star.

Mbappe’s decision not to extend his current contract at the French capital has seen the club leave out the forward out of their squad for their pre-season tour as they attempt to push the forward out the door.

Mbappe's potential transfer cost

Sports Brief also previously reported on how much Mbappe would cost Real Madrid if a blockbuster transfer was to go through this summer.

Spanish news outlet Marca has stated it would cost a fee in excess of €400 million, breaking down the figure to include transfer fees, wages, agent fees, and signing-on fees.

It should be recalled that Real Madrid have so far remained quiet on the ongoing transfer saga.
