A transfer claim has emerged regarding world-famous star footballer Lionel Messi, who currently plays for the MLS team Inter Miami.
According to information from the French press, the Asian Champions League winner Al Ahli has made contact with the Argentine footballer.
Saudi Arabian teams attempted to sign Messi in the summer of 2023 but were unsuccessful. Two years later, the fact that Messi will be a free agent in December has whetted Al Ahli's appetite. The club aims to add Messi to its squad after his contract with Inter Miami expires.
Although the financial details of the negotiations have not yet been disclosed, the fact that Saudi Arabia will host the 2034 World Cup creates a significant attraction for Messi. Al Ahli executives have been making intense efforts to persuade Messi for several weeks. On the other hand, Inter Miami also wants to keep Messi on the team after his first two years in the MLS.
Furthermore, it is stated that the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund is prepared to offer Messi an annual salary of 50 million Euros.
