Real Madrid winger, Vinicius Junior, has been offered a lucrative deal to join Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Pro League, The Athletic reports.
Vinicius is considered one of the best footballers on the planet and helped Los Blancos win the LaLiga and Champions League titles last season.
It is understood that a Public Investment Fund (PIF) delegation, working on behalf of the Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Sport, has spoken to Vinicius’ representatives regarding a future move.
They want Vinicius to join Ronaldo in the Middle East to boost the image of their league.
Such a transfer would see the Brazil international become the new face of the Saudi Pro League.
Saudi officials are eager to bring in another marquee signing ahead of the country hosting the World Cup finals in 2034.
Vinicius could be out of reach for now, as he has a contract in Madrid through to 2027 that includes a €1billion (£856m/$1.1bn) release clause.
