Agreeing to a deal worth £78 million (€90 million), Al-Hilal will welcome Neymar Jnr, who underwent his medical on Monday morning, to Saudi Arabia.
Neymar's off to Saudi Arabia, subject to successful medical. Total salary package set to be around €200m with a fee of around €90m. A lot less than a season long Kylian Mbappe rental, I guess. https://t.co/9jFma38rYc
