According to the Daily Mail, Saudi club Al-Hilal has reportedly offered Romelu Lukaku a lucrative contract worth £21 million per year.
The Chelsea striker is rumored to be seeking a departure from the club this summer, and he met with Al-Hilal officials in Paris to discuss a potential move.
However, the Belgian star has shown initial hesitation about moving to Saudi Arabia.
Currently earning approximately £11 million annually at Chelsea, his preference is to continue playing at the highest level following his disappointment of losing the Champions League final with Inter Milan.
Al-Hilal, a club supported by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, has substantial financial resources and is looking to secure the services of Romelu Lukaku, which would make him their key marquee player.

However, it appears that the 30-year-old is inclined to seek a departure from Stamford Bridge. Additionally, Saudi Arabian clubs, including Al-Ahli, are showing interest in Chelsea striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
