In a bold move to fill the void left by Neymar Jr., Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal has reportedly offered Real Madrid a staggering €300 million for Brazilian forward Rodrygo.

The 22-year-old, who has been instrumental in Real Madrid’s recent successes, including their 2022 and 2024 La Liga–Champions League doubles, is seen as a prime candidate to rejuvenate Al-Hilal’s attacking prowess.

Neymar’s tenure with Al-Hilal was marred by injuries, limiting him to just seven appearances, during which he contributed one goal and three assists.

Following a severe cruciate ligament tear that sidelined him for the entire 2023-24 season, the club and Neymar mutually agreed to terminate his contract. The Brazilian star has since returned to his former club, Santos, on a six-month deal.

Al-Hilal is reportedly prepared to offer Rodrygo a lucrative salary to entice him to the Saudi Pro League. However, Rodrygo, who recently extended his contract with Real Madrid until 2028, has expressed his desire to remain with the Spanish giants and continue his development in European football.

Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.

He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.

“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
