This is the annual salary that Al-Hilal offered Lionel Messi (36, Paris Saint-Germain).
Fabrizio Romano, an expert on the European football transfer market, said on his social media channel on the 5th (Korean time) that “Al-Hilal has made an official offer of more than 400 million euros per year to Messi.” 400 million euros is twice the annual salary of 200 million euros (approximately 287.8 billion won) of Cristiano Ronaldo (38, Al Nasr). It means that Messi will be treated as the best player in the world.
But Messi doesn’t seem to want to leave Europe. “Messi’s absolute priority is to continue playing in Europe,” Romano said. Given Messi’s age, if he leaves Europe, he’s not likely to come back.
Messi signed a two-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in 2021, which expires in June. He is inclined to leave. 스포츠토토
PSG want to renew the contract with Messi. “He didn’t accept PSG’s offer because he wanted a guarantee,” said Romano. According to France’s ‘L’Equipe’, PSG offered Messi a 25% annual salary cut to comply with Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations. This is interpreted as having bought Messi’s antipathy.
FC Barcelona is also considering re-signing. Messi’s family also wants to return to Barcelona. However, Romano pointed out that “Barcelona has problems with the Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulation.”
