Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is seemingly looking to have the same lucrative offers that several footballers have received from Saudi Arabian clubs.
Following reports of a $1.1 billion single-season offer by Al-Hilal for Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe, the 2021 NBA Finals MVP took to social media to make a comical pitch for himself to the Riyadh-based club.
Sporting a new buzz cut reminiscent of the French superstar, Antetokounmpo tweeted, "Al Hilal, you can take me. I look like Kylian Mbappe."
Mbappe responded with a barrage of laughing emojis, amused by the Greek Freak's joke.
Both tweets went viral, with Antetoukounmpo's original tweet amassing 67k retweets and 575k likes after five hours, while Mbappe's response had 93k retweets and 772k likes within the first four hours.

Giannis Antetokounmpo wants the Saudi Arabian money
This is not the first time the two-time NBA MVP proposed himself to the Saudi Professional League.
Antetokounmpo first showed interest in the Saudi bag during the first week of June, when Karim Benzema and Lionel Messi were offered generational wealth to play in the Kingdom.
"I was just sitting on my couch scrolling through For you page. Messi, Ronaldo, and Benzema. If you're looking for a goalie for next season, let me know," the 28-year-old said.
The seven-time All-Star recently posted a video of him juggling a football during a promotional trip to China, asking in the caption if the Saudi Pro League needs more strikers.
