CalcioMercato reports on Alessandro Bastoni's decision regarding a potential move to Al-Hilal. Alessandro Bastoni was invited by his former coach Simone Inzaghi to join Al-Hilal. Bastoni decided to decline the offer as he preferred to compete against Inzaghi in the upcoming Club World Cup.

Simone Inzaghi, who previously coached Inter Milan, is reportedly interested in bringing Alessandro Bastoni to Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia. The club is also said to be interested in acquiring the player. Inzaghi, who enjoyed a successful period at Inter, is eager to reunite with Bastoni, who was a key player during his tenure at the Italian club. La Repubblica reports that Al Hilal is actively pursuing both Bastoni and another Inter stalwart, Nicolò Barella, despite Barella having previously declined a move. This interest arises amidst recent refusals from other high-profile players such as Theo Hernandez and Victor Osimhen to join the Saudi Pro League, underscoring the competitive nature of securing top talents for Al Hilal.
