Saudi Arabian club are rolling out the red carpet for Carlo Ancelotti. |
This figure has doubled compared to the previous invitation of 20 million euros, showing the ambition of "brain drain" of the Saudi Pro League.
Al Hilal, now coached by Jorge Jesús, are not only a force in Saudi Arabia but also one of the top teams in Asia. Coincidentally, Jorge Jesús himself is emerging as a strong candidate for the hot seat of the Brazilian team, after Ancelotti surprisingly turned down an offer from the CBF.
In a humorous interview in December 2023, when asked about the possibility of "retiring" in Saudi Arabia after the shocking deal of golfer Jon Rahm, Ancelotti wittily replied: "I would walk if I had 500 million USD , I don't need a plane. I would walk... Just kidding, everyone chooses what they want. The world is changing and will continue to change. I'm not surprised by anyone. Rahm is very good. I don't know much about golf, but I think he is the best among them."
Al Hilal's 50 million euro offer, although not as high as Rahm's " 500 million USD ", is certainly enough to make Ancelotti seriously consider. Especially in the context of his future at Real Madrid still being uncertain after speculations related to the head coach position of the Brazilian national team.
Whether Ancelotti will accept the "huge" offer from Saudi Arabia remains a big question mark. With an illustrious record and a desire to conquer the heights of Europe, moving to a less competitive league could be a difficult decision for the Italian strategist.
However, the "sky-high" salary along with the recent strong development of Saudi Arabian football could be attractive factors. Ancelotti's final decision will certainly attract special attention from the media and football fans around the world, in the context of endless speculation about his future.
