Al Hilal coach Ramon Diaz quizzed about signing Messi

Al Hilal coach Ramon Diaz has opened the door to signing Argentina captain Leo Messi.

Off contract in June, Messi will leave PSG this summer after falling out with management.

Before their Champions League final defeat to Urawa Diamonds, Diaz was asked about Messi's arrival.

"We'll see what happens," replied Diaz.

While Barcelona have expressed interest in re-signing Messi, Al Hilal are putting together a €400m package to bring him to Saudi Arabia.
