Al-Hilal will play in the final of the Saudi Cup on May 12
Saudi Head Coach Al-Hilal Argentine Ramon Diaz commented on the information about a possible transfer Lionel Messi.
“We have the final soon, so now we are focused on the match. We’ll see what happens after the final.”
On May 12, Al-Hilal will play in the final of the Saudi Cup against Al-Wehda. Last week, Al-Hilal lost to the Japanese Urawa in the final of the Asian Champions League (0:1 and 1:1).
Recall that Messi and Al-Hilal reached a verbal agreement. The Argentinean will sign a 2+1 contract. Messi’s salary will be 600 million euros per year, including bonus payments.
It is known that Messi will leave PSG in the summer on a free transfer. The Argentinean’s agreement with the Parisians expires on June 30. Messi was recently suspended from PSG training for the Argentine’s unscheduled trip to Saudi Arabia. Now the Argentine has already returned to training with the team.
This season Messi has 20 goals and 19 assists in 37 matches for Paris in all competitions. After his suspension, Lionel will have to finish three fights for the club in the French championship.
Al-Hilal is in fourth place in the Saudi Arabia Pro League standings.
