In Saudi Arabia they dream of Leo Messi and, in order to get him to accept the offer of more than 500 million euros per season that they are offering the rosarino, they have come up with a plan that includes Sergio Busquets. They will offer the captain 15 million per season, according to 'AS', to serve as a lure for the Argentine.

Sergio Busquets has announced that he will not remain at FC Barcelona. On 30th June, he will leave in search of a new destination yet to be determined, as he will not decide on any of the options on the table until the end of the season.

Al Hilal is one of the clubs interested in the 'Cules' captain. 'AS' claims that they would be willing to pay him 15 million euros per season.

The Saudi side would, in a way, use the Spanish player to convince Leo Messi. The two have a great friendship and there has been a lot of talk about their reunion in the MLS, for example.

Al Hilal is ready to line Messi's pockets. They would have offered him a whopping 500 millionper season, according to this newspaper. But, as sometimes money is not everything, they will also try to sign Busquets, so that the rosarino has one more reason to try this league.

Cristiano Ronaldo is already a star player at the Saudi tournament, but more world-class players could be involved. In addition to the aforementioned Busquets and Messi, Jordi Alba and Iniesta have also been linked with the competition.
