Giannis Antetokounmpo Makes Hilarious Pitch to Al Hilal in Response to Mbappe’s Reported Offer

Kylian Mbappé made news in the soccer world on Monday, as Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal reportedly offered over $1 billion to Paris Saint-Germain to acquire the French star. As part of the offer, Al Hilal would send $322 million to PSG while paying Mbappé $776 million for just one year. 

If Mbappé does end up playing on that deal, he would make more than LeBron James ever has in his entire career. As many fans have made their jokes over that amount of money, the latest person to chime in is Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, who said he would gladly take Mbappé’s spot on the team.

“Al Hilal you can take me,” he tweeted. “I look like Kylian Mbappe.”

Mbappé saw Antetokounmpo’s tweet and responded simply with over a dozen laughing emojis.

Antetokounmpo is currently in the middle of a five-year, $228 million deal with the Bucks, and the most he will make in one year is over $51 million on a player option. According to Spotrac, he will have made over $335 million in his career once that deal is up, a number that is not even half of what Al Hilal is offering to pay Mbappé.
