Neymar to Al Hilal Transfer Highlights: Brazilian star set to join lucrative Saudi Pro League

Neymar set to join Al Hilal

Al Hilal is said to be offering PSG up to 100 million euros (£86.3m) for the 31-year-old Neymar as they focus on rebuilding their squad with younger and promising players.

Neymar, who joined PSG in 2017 for a world record fee of £200m from FC Barcelona, was previously linked with a return to Barcelona but no progress was made, leading him to explore other options.

The sale of Neymar has been approved by PSG due to Spanish coach Luis Enrique's willingness to let him go. This move will also relieve the club of his annual wage of 25 million euros, as his current contract runs until summer 2025.

News of Neymar's imminent departure comes shortly after striker Kylian Mbappe returned to first-team training following his absence during pre-season and the season opener.

Earlier this year, PSG allowed Mbappe to hold talks with Al Hilal after receiving a record-breaking bid of £259m for the player. However, it was reported that Mbappe refused even meeting with representatives from the Saudi club.

Now let's shift our attention towards Al Hilal's transfer dealings in this summer window, where many top professionals have moved to the Saudi Pro League.

Here are the live updates and latest developments from the transfer of Neymar to Al Hilal:
