Al-Hilal have reportedly tabled a record-breaking offer for Kylian Mbappe after the superstar was put up for sale by Paris Saint-Germain.

The club are offering a €300m transfer fee to PSG, and they are prepared to offer Mbappe a salary package of €700m over one year, after which he would be free to move to Real Madrid.

Mbappe has shown no interest in signing an extension to his current deal at the Parc des Princes, which ends in 2024.

He has been linked with a move to Real Madrid, who have now been handed a huge hand in signing the player.

The situation with Mbappe and PSG is tricky - the club are furious that Mbappe wants to run down his contract in a bid to receive the lucrative loyalty bonus which is in his contract.

The Ligue 1 champions want to sell the 24-year-old this summer in order to avoid losing him for nothing in a year's time. There is also speculation that he has agreed to join Real Madrid on a free transfer in 2024.

But now there is a chance he will move to Al-Hilal for a world-record fee, according to Fabrizio Romano.

It’s not thought that talks on the player's side are yet to begin, nor is there any indication that he will accept the offer.

Saudi make Mbappe offer

Indeed, in an unprecedented move, the Saudi club are reportedly prepared to let Mbappe join Real Madrid after just one year.

His current position is that he wants to stay at PSG for another year, but Al-Hilal's huge offer could well be enough to change his mind.

PSG have had Mbappe training away from the first-team squad as a result and they have said they will not play him next season if he was to stay.
