June 29, 2025 – The future of Nigerian superstar Victor Osimhen is hanging in the balance as Saudi Pro League giants Al Hilal table a jaw-dropping €50 million-per-season contract to lure the striker away from Europe.
According to trusted Napoli transfer insider Armando Areniello, the former Lille man is now closer than ever to an exit from Napoli.
“Victor Osimhen has never been so close to leaving Napoli. Al Hilal’s latest monstrous bid could be decisive: €50m per season for the player,” Areniello told ArenaNapoli.
Transfer Details So Far:
- Salary Offer: €50 million per year (~€960,000 per week)
- Club Bid to Napoli: Negotiations are ongoing; a transfer fee between €60–65 million could seal the deal
- Current Club: Napoli (contract until June 2026)
- Loan Status: Loan spell at Galatasaray ends midnight, Monday, June 30
Napoli’s next move:
Despite the uncertainty, Napoli is not standing down. Italian outlet La Repubblica reports that the Serie A side has instructed Osimhen to report for pre-season training on July 15 at the Castel Volturno Sports Centre.
They’ve also scheduled to send an official letter to the Nigerian striker by Monday, June 30, ordering his return.
What This Means:
Victor Osimhen’s exit is no longer a rumor—it’s heating up fast. While European clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, and Liverpool continue monitoring the situation, the Saudi money on the table might just change everything.
