Reports suggest that Ghanaian winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku could be tempted to leave the Premier League for a lucrative offer from Saudi club Al Hilal.

Al Hilal are reportedly ready to offer him an annual salary of 10 million euros.

Issahaku, who recently helped Leicester City secure promotion back to the Premier League, is still finding his feet in the top flight league.

Despite his promising start, including an assist on his Premier League debut, the financial allure from Al Hilal presents a significant opportunity.

Leicester City might be open to selling him, potentially recouping the €17 million they spent to sign him permanently from Sporting Lisbon earlier this summer.

Issahaku, who struggled with confidence and form at Sporting before his move, has shown glimpses of his talent with six goals and 13 assists in the Championship, contributing significantly to Leicester's promotion.

He signed a five-year contract with Leicester and has a market value of €10 million, but could be sold for more if the offer is right.

Currently, Issahaku is on international duty with Ghana for the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Angola and Niger.
