Victor Osimhen

Victor Osimhen has turned down a lucrative offer from Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal, despite Napoli agreeing to a €75 million transfer fee. The Nigerian striker has made it clear that he prefers to continue playing in Europe, keeping his future open for other potential suitors.

Al Hilal had been pushing to finalize the deal, even offering Osimhen a staggering €30 million per season contract. However, the forward has decided against the move, leaving Galatasaray and other European clubs in contention for his signature.

Osimhen spent the 2024-25 season on loan at Galatasaray, where he delivered an outstanding performance, scoring 37 goals in 41 appearances. His contributions were instrumental in the Turkish club’s success, making them eager to secure him on a permanent basis.

With the race for Osimhen’s next destination now wide open, Galatasaray is expected to intensify efforts to bring him back. Meanwhile, other top European clubs may also enter the competition, as the prolific striker remains one of the most sought-after talents in world football.
