Romano: Al-Hilal Not Pursuing Bastoni Transfer, No Active Negotiations

Renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano reported on July 20 that Saudi club Al-Hilal is not currently conducting specific, active, or realistic negotiations to sign Inter Milan defender Alessandro Bastoni, despite recent rumors. Romano clarified that Al-Hilal has other priority targets and that while Bastoni shares a good relationship with head coach Simone Inzaghi from their time at Inter, this has not led to any transfer talks. At this stage, no negotiations exist between the two parties, effectively dismissing speculation about a potential move to the Saudi Pro League.
