Lionel Messi is actively considering a move to Al Hilal which would see him rival Cristiano Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia, it's been claimed.
The Paris Saint-Germain superstar, 35, is increasing likely to leave the Parc des Princes when his contract expires at the end of this season and has received a bumper £350million-a-year offer from the Middle Eastern club. But Messi is also confirmed to be in talks over re-signing for Barcelona, his beloved side who he left in 2021 due to the LaLiga giants' well-documented financial woes.
Ronaldo, three years his senior, made the move to Saudi Arabia in December when he left Manchester United to join Al-Nassr, scoring 10 goals in nine appearances since. Al Hilal are Ronaldo and co's fierce local rivals, also hailing from the capital city of Riyadh.
