Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal are reportedly pushing to sign Jamaica international Demarai Gray from Everton.

Al-Hilal are reportedly interested in signing Demarai Gray from Everton.

Saudi Arabia have made a significant effort in the early stages of the summer transfer window to lure top talents to their domestic league.

Al-Hilal have been one of the clubs that have already made an impression in the transfer market after recently signing Ruben Neves from Wolverhampton Wanderers for £47m.

They have also spent around £20m to sign Kalidou Koulibaly, who leaves Chelsea after spending just one season at Stamford Bridge.

Al-Hilal are not expected to stop their spending there, and they are seemingly keen to prise more players away from the Premier League.

According to Sky Sports News, the Saudi Arabian outfit are interested in signing Jamaica international Gray this summer.

Al-Hilal are expected to send a delegation to London this week to begin negotiations over a potential transfer.

Gray, who has 12 months remaining on his contract, is also said to be attracting interest from three unnamed Premier League clubs.

The 26-year-old scored four goals and contributed one assist in 33 Premier League appearances last term, helping the Toffees avoid relegation.

In total, Gray has registered 12 goals and six assists in 75 appearances since joining the club from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2021.

After switching international allegiances from England to Jamaica, Gray made his debut for the Reggae Boyz in Saturday's Gold Cup opener against the USA.

The former Leicester City man made an immediate impression, providing the assist for Damion Lowe's goal in the 1-1 draw.

Gray is not the only Premier League player on Al-Hilal's radar, with Manchester City's Bernardo Silva said to be among their targets.

The Citizens have reportedly offered Silva a new contract on improved terms in a bid to keep him at the Etihad Stadium.
