Saturday, June 7, 2025 - Super Eagles and Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen, has finally agreed on personal terms with top Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal .
The striker had previously walked away from negotiations
after he was not given his request of €40 million per year.
Now, contrary reports indicate that a contract has been
agreed worth €30m per year over four years.
According to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, an
agreement between Osimhen and Al-Hilal over personal terms is in place, with
the striker set to be paid the equivalent of $35 million (£29m/$40m) as a base
rate over the course of his contract - topped up with add-ons.
Despite the breakthrough with the player, Al-Hilal
are still short of an agreement with Napoli.
Journalist Gianluca Di Marzio notes that
the Saudi giants' best offer is €70m (£59m/$80m) and Napoli want €75m
(£63m/$86m).
Negotiations between the clubs over the transfer fee are set
to continue.
If Al-Hilal can wrap up the transfer on time, they will be
able to use Osimhen at the FIFA Club World Cup, with the mini-transfer
window closing on June 10.
This latest development will be a massive blow to Turkish
champions Galatasaray, who have been pushing for the striker to remain with
them after his successful loan spell. He scored 37 goals in 43 appearances
across competitions for the club.
