FC Barcelona Star Ousmane Dembele Receives ‘Enormous’ $220 Million Offer To Join Ronaldo At Al-Nassr: Reports

Foot Mercato that Ousmane Dembele has received a "enormous offer" of €200 million ($222.5 million) to join Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr.

After mutually terminating his Manchester United contract in January, Ronaldo joined Saudi Pro League leaders.


The move, believed to pay him $200 million a season, helped the famous forward top Forbes' May list of The World's Highest-Paid Athletes.

Though Al-Hilal failed to deliver his generational rival and new Inter Miami signing Lionel Messi, big stars like Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema and N'Golo Kante have moved from elite European football to the Kingdom, where the Public Investment Fund has taken control of four of the biggest clubs to boost its domestic championship.


While all the players named thus far are far past their 30th birthday, or nearing 40 in the case of Ronaldo, Benzema, and Messi, the Saudi Pro League has yet to land a top, youthful star at the peak of his powers.

Al-Hilal's 26-year-old Ruben Neves fits somewhat. The Portuguese midfielder didn't play for Europe's largest club, Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Al-Nassr's latest signing of 30-year-old Marcelo Brozovic, the Russia 2018 and 2022/2023 Champions League finalist from FC Barcelona, was more impressive.

However, convincing one of the World Cup final winners would indicate considerable progress in the quest to have the local league recognised as more than a wealthy retirement camp.

Al-Nassr's five-year, €40 million ($44.5 million) a season deal, according to Foot Mercato, would have totaled €200 million and made 'The Mosquito' rich before his 31st birthday.
