Milwaukee Bucks’ beloved star, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is known for his passion for soccer, has been closely following the rumors surrounding Kylian Mbappe’s potential move. In a lighthearted gesture on Monday, Giannis shared a selfie and humorously captioned it, playfully hoping to grab a slice of the jaw-dropping salary offered to Mbappe in Saudi Arabia.
While Giannis himself earns a significant income in the NBA, with a hefty salary of over $45 million for the upcoming season, his tweet playfully highlights the eye-watering money being offered to Mbappe as the Saudi league strives to secure the services of arguably its biggest superstar to date.
In response to Giannis’ tweet, it took merely 32 minutes for Mbappe to chime in, and he did so using a series of emojis. The French football sensation quote-tweeted Giannis with 13 “crying laughing” emojis, instantly igniting speculations across social media platforms.

Despite the ongoing rumors and enticing offers, Mbappe has expressed his contentment in Paris and his commitment to fulfilling his contract. Nevertheless, PSG remains adamant about renewing his contract, warning that failure to do so might lead to his sale in the final month of the transfer window. This captivating saga shows no signs of slowing down as the new club season draws near.
