TL;DR Summary

Saudi Arabian team Al Hilal has made a record-breaking offer of $332 million to acquire French striker Kylian Mbappé from Paris St.-Germain, which would make him the most expensive player in soccer history. The offer has been granted permission to discuss salary and contract length with Mbappé, who is already highly paid at PSG. Other clubs, including Chelsea, Barcelona, and Real Madrid, have also expressed interest in signing Mbappé. Al Hilal hopes to take advantage of the growing tension between Mbappé and PSG, and it has been reported that they would allow him to leave for Spain after just one season in Saudi Arabia.
