Saudi club reach agreement for Osimhen

Al-Ahli have reached an agreement with Napoli for Victor Osimhen (mafter the Saudi Arabian side offered an €80 million transfer fee for the Nigerian international.

Al-Ahli have also offered the striker a lucrative four-year contract which would see him earn €35 million per year and he would also be provided with a release clause.

Chelsea have not given up hope on signing the striker and last night sent personnel to Naples to try and convince Osimhen to join the club. However, Osimhen is still thought to be closer to agreeing to the Saudi Arabian side over Chelsea.

Paris Saint-Germain had been in the race for Osimhen for much of the summer, however, reportedly pulled out of negotiations despite suffering an injury to Gonçalo Ramos in the first game of the season.

Osimhen had also been a target last summer when the French champions had sent two offers to Napoli valued at over €100 million.
