Inzaghi is about to explode his first 'blockbuster' in Saudi Arabia

Striker Victor Osimhen is set to leave Napoli to join Al Hilal, one of the top clubs in the Saudi Pro League.

Osimhen may go to Saudi Arabia to play.

Saudi Arabian media reported that Osimhen and Al Hilal had reached an agreement on personal terms. The Nigerian striker will receive a salary of around 35 million euros per year during the contract period, plus other bonuses.

The problem now is that Napoli and Al Hilal need to agree on a transfer fee. Journalist Gianluca Di Marzio said the best offer the Saudi Arabian side could make was €70 million, while Napoli were asking for €75 million for Osimhen.

Osimhen's relationship with Napoli has been strained since last summer, although he has signed a new contract until 2026. Osimhen's current deal has just one year left to run.

In the 2024/25 season, the Nigerian striker scored 37 goals while playing for Galatasaray on loan. In Türkiye, Osimhen also won the domestic double.

The €5 million difference is not considered a big problem for Al Hilal. If the deal is completed quickly, Al Hilal can include Osimhen in the squad for the FIFA Club World Cup.

Al Hilal has just appointed coach Simone Inzaghi as captain with a salary of 25 million euros/season, a record for the league. The Italian strategist has the freedom to shop to help Al Hilal compete for the title next season.

The moment Napoli won Serie A In the early morning of May 5 ( Hanoi time), Napoli fans flooded Udinese's home field to celebrate the 1-1 draw that brought the 3rd Scudetto in the history of the Southern Italian team.
