The past few hours have witnessed a positive development in the renewal of Portuguese player Ruben Neves' contract with Al-Hilal during the coming period, in light of the desire for him to continue within the ranks of the team during the coming period.
According to the reliable journalist Longari, who specializes in Saudi football: "There are positive developments regarding the renewal of Ruben Neves' contract with Al-Hilal in the coming period, indicating that negotiations are currently progressing well towards the player continuing with the team in the coming period."
He stated: "Al-Hilal has submitted a contract to renew Ruben Neves' contract for 3 seasons, and the club's management is looking forward to finalizing this matter officially and ensuring his continued presence within the team."
According to the latest reports, Neves does not mind continuing with Al-Hilal, but he stipulated an increase in his annual salary by 10 million euros over his current contract, which may complicate the course of negotiations between the two parties during the coming period, as previous reports stated that the player’s salary at the moment reaches 19 million euros net annually.
Al-Hilal signed Neves in the summer of 2023 from Wolverhampton Wanderers, making him one of the mainstays of the "Leader" team.
Since joining, the player has played 113 matches in various competitions, during which he scored 17 goals and provided 30 assists.
The Portuguese star's contract with Al-Hilal extends until June 2026, while his current market value is around 25 million euros.
The 28-year-old has so far won four titles with the capital team.
