Al Hilal, a team from Saudi Arabia, has expressed its willingness to pay Victor Osimhen, the Super Eagles striker, a staggering £1 million in weekly wages.
Despite their previous offer to buy him being rejected by Napoli, Al Hilal remains persistent and has now submitted a massive bid of £120.3 million to Napoli for Osimhen.
They are also enticing him with the opportunity to agree to a £1 million-per-week wage as part of the personal terms. Osimhen, who is 24 years old, had discussions about extending his contract with Napoli but couldn’t reach a resolution, as his current deal is set to expire in 2025.

Nevertheless, Al Hilal’s substantial offer is likely to be turned down as the Italian top-flight club has set a staggering £170 million price tag on their star player.
Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis previously stated that only Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has the financial capacity to acquire Osimhen before Saudi Arabia’s interest in him became apparent.

De Laurentiis mentioned in July that if PSG president Nasser Al Khelaifi submits a bid around £170 million, they would consider it, but he personally believes that Victor Osimhen will remain at Napoli.
Osimhen’s impressive performance last season, where he scored 26 goals and became the first African player to win the prestigious Capocannoniere award as Serie A’s top scorer, played a crucial role in helping Napoli secure their first Scudetto in 33 years, solidifying his place in the club’s history.
