Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal has bid a world-record £260m for France superstar Kylian Mbappe, according to transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano.
Mbappe’s current club Paris St Germain (PSG) are desperate to sell the striker after he refused to sign a contract extension and told them last month he plans to leave when his current deal expires next June.
After leaving the 24-year-old out of their preseason plans, a letter from the club giving him an ultimatum to come to the table to agree a new deal or a transfer was leaked over the weekend.
