Later, Messi's father and agent Jorge Messi denied the news of a secret agreement with the Saudi club. That did not stop the Saudi club Al Hilal with the name of the Argentinian superstar. This time, Al Hilal denied the secret agreement with Messi.
Messi will become a free agent at the end of his two-year contract with PSG on June 30. Al Hilal does not mind paying a record fee of 400 to 600 million euros per year to get him without the transfer fee.
Al Hilal confirmed to Spanish media outlet Mundo Deportivo that although Messi has been offered that offer, no agreement has yet been reached. The Saudi club also said that there was no agreement regarding the contract. Messi will not make a final decision on his next destination before June 30.
Because, his main goal is still to return to Barcelona. Sergio Busquets, the team's current captain, will leave Barca at the end of the season. Also, releasing a few other players would allow Barca to bring Messi back within La Liga's salary cap.
