The Al-Hilal management has given Richard Hughes a final deadline to make his decision regarding taking on the role of sporting director, in a move that reflects the club's desire to swiftly conclude this matter.

According to the information, Al Hilal is awaiting a final response next week after a period of consultations, with the management clearly keen on contracting Hughes due to his administrative and technical expertise.

This step comes as part of the club's efforts to organize its administrative structure more professionally, especially with its significant ambitions on both the local and continental levels.

In the event that an agreement is not reached, Al Hilal may have to move towards alternative options, but the priority remains focused on finalizing the agreement with Hughes as soon as possible.
