Sky Sports revealed that Saudi Al-Hilal is showing serious interest in signing Brazilian Palmeiras midfielder Richard Rios during the current summer transfer window.

According to the report, the Colombian player has come under the radar of the 'Leader' management, which is seeking to strengthen the midfield with a player who possesses high technical skills and the ability to create plays and control the tempo, which Rios has been demonstrating impressively with his Brazilian team.

No official offers have been made yet, but Al-Hilal is considering the possibility of negotiating with Palmeiras in the coming days, especially given coach Simone Inzaghi's desire to bolster the team's ranks with new elements before the start of the 2025/26 football season.

It is worth noting that 24-year-old Richard Rios is one of the rising stars in the Brazilian league and shone in the last Club World Cup, making him a promising option for any club looking for a dynamic and impactful midfielder.
