Share:

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, looks set to be leaving Europe to play club football in the Saudi Pro League after reports that the Napoli man, who spent the last season on loan at Galatasaray, has accepted a contract offer from Al Hilal.

Osimhen has been subject of speculation regarding his future at the end of his loan spell in Turkey, where he finished the season as Super Lig top scorer with 26 goals, and helped Galatasaray to the league and cup double.

The striker was previously on the verge of joining Chelsea in the Premier League at the start of last season before joining Galatasaray on loan, while a Manchester United move was mooted for some time.

He has now accepted personal terms with Al Hilal, according to Sky Italia, with Napoli set to €70m for the Nigeria international, after two previous offers were turned down by the former Serie A champions.

This means Osimhen could feature at the FIFA Club World Cup taking place this month, if the Saudi giants wrap up a deal with Napoli in time to register the Nigerian striker.
