Fulham striker Mitrovic threatens strike over Al-Hilal battle

Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic has threatened to go on strike in an effort to get a move to Saudi Arabia.

The Serbian centre forward does not want to remain at the Premier League club, despite having years to go on his contract.

The 28-year-old wants a move to the Saudi Pro League, where Al-Hilal will triple his £120,000-a-week wages.

Per Sky Sports, Mitrovic has threatened to not play any more games for Fulham unless they sell him.

While he is on the plane for their preseason tour, the striker wants a deal done with Al-Hilal as soon as possible.

Fulham are not budging, as they value Mitrovic at £52 million and have not received a bid close to that figure.
