Consider me over Mbappe — NBA Star begs Al Hilal

NBA superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo has openly urged the Saudi Arabia Pro League side, Al Hilal, to consider signing him instead of Paris Saint-Germain forward, Kylian Mbappe.

Reports suggest that Al Hilal is preparing a staggering transfer record-breaking €300 million deal to acquire the services of Mbappe. However, it seems that the basketball sensation sees an opportunity for himself in the football world and has made his ambitions known.

According to renowned transfer market expert, Fabrizio Romano, Al Hilal has already initiated talks with Paris Saint-Germain regarding the potential transfer of Kylian Mbappe. While the Arabians are reportedly prepared to offer the Frenchman an astronomical salary of €200 million per annum, there have been no reports of any concrete discussions with the player’s side so far.

Taking advantage of the situation and possibly intrigued by the financial prospects of a football career, Giannis Antetokounmpo took to Twitter to make a bold statement.

The NBA star posted a photo of himself, emphasizing the striking resemblance he shares with the highly sought-after Kylian Mbappe. In his tweet, Giannis humorously wrote, “Al Hilal, you can take me. I look like Kylian Mbappe.”

Mbappe, who was presumably amused by the unexpected proposition, quoted Giannis’ tweet with laughing emojis, sparking amusement among fans worldwide.

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s tweet has since gone viral, igniting discussions across social media platforms and sports news outlets. Fans, pundits, and even fellow athletes have been speculating on the likelihood of such a transfer, as they marvel at the intriguing prospect of witnessing the NBA icon’s transition to professional football.

While Giannis Antetokounmpo’s plea may have been made on a humorous note in response to the humongous wage the Frenchman has been touted to receive. It adds some levity to an already captivating and dramatic saga surrounding Kylian Mbappe’s potential move to Al Hilal.

The Saudi Arabian club, renowned for its ambitious and lavish transfers, now faces an unusual proposition as they navigate negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain.
