Kylian Mbappe could sign a $776 million contract with the Saudi club Al Hilal. LeBron James and other NBA stars were shocked by the news. Mbappe is now playing for Paris Saint Germain in France. Many people say he is the best player in the world right now, and he is in high demand.

At just 24 years old, Mbappe has shown moments of brilliance like legendary players Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo did in their careers. So, it’s no wonder that Saudi Arabia, with its wealth, is eager to go after this superstar and offer a huge amount to get him.

The Saudi Pro League began spending a lot of money by signing Ronaldo. After that, they added more famous players like Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante, Kalidou Koulibaly, and Sergej Milankovic-Savic, among many others. Some of these players are still at their best playing level.

Mbappe joining the Saudi team could be a crucial step for their goal of becoming a strong soccer team. But, it’s doubtful that the PSG star will play outside of Europe because he is about to reach his prime years and may have the chance to play for his dream club, Real Madrid.

Right now, there are rumors about Al Hilal’s offer, which has NBA stars like LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo jokingly thinking about the possibility of playing in Saudi Arabia. They found the news about the huge offer for Kylian Mbappe to be quite funny and shared humorous reactions.

“Me headed to Saudi when they call @RichPaul4 and @mavcarter for that 1 year deal!” LeBron James tweeted.

Other NBA stars have also reacted to the news.

Mbappe’s potential deal is crazy

If Mbappe signs the $776 million deal with Al Hilal, he would earn more money than the 17 highest-paid NBA players combined next season, including stars like Stephen Curry, LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and others. His projected earnings would exceed the combined earnings of these NBA stars by $16 million.

Stephen Curry, the highest-paid NBA player, will earn $51.1 million next year, the only one earning more than $50 million. Football leagues, like the Saudi Pro League, have various financial laws that permit such large transactions. Even if there were no pay limitations, no professional sports league, including the NBA, would offer such deals.
