Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior has opted to make a decision in regard to his future at the end of the season amid a staggering offer from Saudi Arabia.
The Saudis have offered the 24-year-old an eye-watering €350 million proposal that was not immediately rejected by the Brazil international, causing concern inside the Spanish club.
The winger is dreaming of winning the Ballon d'Or this year.
Vinicius' entourage have informed Real Madrid that their client is not ready to renew his deal, which is set to reach its end in 2027, as he needs time to make a decision on his future.
ESPN says Vinicius will wait until the end of the current season before considering his options.
The proposed move to the Saudi Pro League would see the Brazilian become the highest-paid athlete in the world.
He will then sign for Al-Ahli, and would also become a football ambassador for Saudi Arabia ahead of the 2034 World Cup.
SPL officials are hoping to convince Real Madrid to lower the €1 billion needed to release Vinicius from his deal in 2025.
