Victor Osimhen has made it clear — he wants to stay in Europe and not move to Saudi Arabia, even though he’s getting huge money offers from their clubs.
According to La Repubblica, the Nigerian striker is asking for a yearly salary of €15 million as he plans his next move away from Napoli.
Osimhen still has a contract with Napoli until 2026, but the club’s new coach, Antonio Conte, does not have him in his plans. So, Osimhen is expected to leave this summer.
Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal really wants him. They even offered to pay him around €40 million every year — but Osimhen said no. He wants to join a strong team in Europe instead of just chasing big money.
Turkish club Galatasaray has also shown interest and already contacted him. But sources say Osimhen prefers a move to the English Premier League.
Liverpool and a few other top clubs in Europe have been linked with him, but no club has officially made an offer yet.
Even though Osimhen has rejected Saudi offers, Al Hilal is still pushing hard to get him. They are even ready to sell one of their current strikers — either Marcos Leonardo or Aleksandar Mitrović — to make room for him.
