Recent report claims that the former Real Madrid and Manchester United boss will be given a big offer to tempt him to take up a new challenge in the Saudi Pro League.
Al-Hilal reportedly wants an experienced manager to manage the club according to Foot Mercato, and they have listed Mourinho as a prime managerial candidate for their side.
