Saudi Arabian giants Al Hilal have officially made a huge offer to sign Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen from Napoli. According to reliable reports, the proposal is worth €65 million with an additional €5 million in add-ons.
This comes just a day after news broke that Al Hilal had started talks with Osimhen about his salary and personal terms. The Saudi club clearly sees him as their top target, and they’re moving quickly to get the deal done.
Osimhen is no stranger to attention. The 25-year-old forward became a household name during the 2022–23 Serie A season, where he scored 26 goals and led Napoli to their first league title in over three decades. His killer instinct in front of goal, speed, and physicality earned him the Serie A Best Striker Award and a place in the Team of the Year.
After a short loan spell at Galatasaray in Turkey, Osimhen is now back at Napoli. While on loan, he continued to impress with his energy and eye for goal.
Internationally, Osimhen is a key player for Nigeria, scoring important goals and leading the team with passion. In 2023, he made history by winning the CAF Men’s Player of the Year Award, becoming the first Nigerian to claim the honor in 24 years.
