Spanish media reported that Al Hilal has set its sights on signing another Real Madrid star other than Vinicius Junior next summer.
Neymar officially left the Blue Wave to return to Santos, and the Saudi club is looking for a big star who can make a big difference next season.
According to recent reports, Al Hilal management is placing Rodrigo as its first choice to replace Neymar, not Vinicius Junior as published in recent weeks.
The total value of the offer submitted by Al Hilal to Rodrigo reached 300 million euros, of which the player will receive 140 million euros as an annual salary, and the rest as the value of his transfer from Real Madrid.
However, the 23-year-old rejected the idea of leaving Real despite the legendary Saudi offer, and prefers to continue at Santiago Bernabeu to write history, which is the same position of Florentino Perez’s management.
Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti responded to the news in a press conference on Friday by confirming that both Rodrygo and Vinicius are happy and have no intention of leaving the Merengue anytime soon.
It should be noted that Rodrygo’s contract still runs until the summer of 2027 and has a release clause of €1 billion, which puts Real Madrid in a strong position against any interest in signing their star.
