On Tuesday, French reports claimed that Messi's move to the Saudi Al Hilal is a "done deal."

The reports added that the FIFA World Cup winner would sign a deal with the Riyadh based for £522 million.

However, Antonela Roccuzzo's still concerned about moving the KSA.

The move will see a continuation of the historical rivalry with Cristiano Ronaldo, who plays for Al-Hilal's historical rivals Al-Nassr.

According to AFP, a Saudi source who is close to the negotiations confirmed the deal of Messi to Al Hilal.

On the other hand, GetFootballNewsFrance said that no agreement hadn't been reached with the Saudi team.

Messi will depart Paris Saint-Germain by the end of this season as two parties decided to depart ways.
