Simone Inzaghi, newly appointed Al Hilal manager and former Inter Milan boss, has reportedly reached out once again to Super Eagles star Victor Osimhen in a fresh bid to lure him to Saudi Arabia. The pressure is rising, and so is the pay.
- Inzaghi personally called Osimhen, urging him to join him at Al Hilal.
- Al Hilal’s latest offer: €160 million over 4 years, potentially making Osimhen one of football’s highest-paid players.
- The Saudi side is the only club ready to meet Napoli’s €75 million release clause.
- Galatasaray wants a discount; Juventus faces higher fees as Italian clubs are excluded from the clause.
- Osimhen previously turned down Al Hilal before the FIFA Club World Cup.
Osimhen’s next move may come down to a tug-of-war between ambition and reward. With a personal call from Inzaghi and a €160m cheque on the table, Saudi Arabia may not be just a stop for veterans anymore; it could be a destination for stars in their prime.
Is this Osimhen’s defining transfer window? All eyes are on the striker as Al Hilal ups the stakes. Will he stay European, or answer Inzaghi’s Riyadh call?
