"Me headed to Saudi": LeBron James has a hilarious reaction after Kylian Mbappe gets offered a whopping $700 million deal

LA Lakers' LeBron James was one of many people surprised with the mega one-year deal that French soccer superstar Kylian Mbappe received from Al Hilal.

The Saudi Arabian soccer club reportedly offered Mbappe a one-year deal worth over $700 million, which is undoubtedly one of the biggest offers in all sports.

Having recently made a fortune worth a billion dollars through playing in the NBA, LeBron was seemingly taken aback by the offer Mbappe received.

He didn't hide the fact that he was interested in an offer similar to the soccer star and quickly went to Twitter to show share his cheeky reaction:

"Me headed to Saudi when they call @RichPaul4 & @mavcarter for that 1 year deal!" James tweeted.

With the insane offer the Saudi Arabian club made for Mbappe it could be possible that they pursue an NBA superstar next. Given that basketball has expanded globally over the past few years and the league has become a global brand, there's a chance that LeBron could get a similar offer one day.

James signed a two-year contract extension worth $97.1 million prior to the start of last season with the LA Lakers. He has a player option for the 2024-25 season, which he could exercise to allow him to play alongside his son, Bronny.

"Be on the lookout, 'cause we got some special stuff coming too. Stay tuned now."

According to James, big things are still on their way, but didn't give much minformation about it for now.
