BREAKING: Saudi Arabian club Al Ahli reaches agreement to sign Osimhen for €80m
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Napoli and the Saudi Arabian club, Al Ahli have finalized an agreement for the transfer of Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. The deal is reported to be worth between €75 million and €80 million, marking one of the most significant transfers of the summer. This agreement highlights the growing financial influence of Saudi Arabian clubs in the global football market.

Fabrizio Romano, a well-known football transfer expert, confirmed the details of the deal. According to Romano, this transfer will be completed as a “club-to-club” arrangement, which means the negotiations and agreement are finalized directly between the two clubs. Romano also provided details on the financial aspects of the deal, stating that the total package for Osimhen is within the €75 to €80 million range.

Osimhen is set to sign a four-year contract with Al Ahli. His contract will see him earn approximately £33.6 million (€40 million) per season, translating to around £646,154 per week. Notably, this salary is tax-free, making it a highly lucrative offer for the player. The inclusion of a release clause in his contract also adds a layer of flexibility for both the player and the club, potentially allowing Osimhen to move in the future if certain conditions are met.

As part of the transfer process, Al Ahli has already scheduled a medical examination for Osimhen. This step is crucial in finalizing the transfer and ensuring that there are no health issues that could affect his performance. The scheduling of the medical indicates that both parties are moving forward with the deal as planned.

Interestingly, Osimhen is expected to decline a potential move to Chelsea, despite ongoing interest from the Premier League club. This decision highlights the growing appeal of football opportunities in Saudi Arabia and reflects Osimhen’s personal career choices.

The player’s preference for Al Ahli over Chelsea signals a shift in the dynamics of international football transfers, where financial incentives and new challenges in emerging football markets are becoming increasingly influential.

Romano shared this update on X, formerly known as Twitter, providing fans and analysts with the latest information on the transfer. His update confirmed that Napoli and Al Ahli have reached a total agreement for Osimhen and that all necessary steps, including the medical appointment, are in place to complete the transfer.

Victor Osimhen’s move to Al Ahli represents a significant development in the football transfer landscape. It not only highlights the financial power of Saudi Arabian clubs but also marks a key moment in Osimhen’s career, as he prepares for a new chapter in his professional journey.
