Saudi Clubs and Premier League Teams Race for Victor Osimhen

Victor Osimhen, the highly sought-after Nigerian striker, is at the center of a fierce transfer battle. Several clubs in the

Saudi Arabian Pro League have already expressed interest in securing the 26-year-old’s services this summer, with at

least two major teams reportedly in talks with his representatives.

According to renowned transfer expert Nicolo Schira, these Saudi clubs are willing to activate the €75 million release

clause in Osimhen’s contract with Napoli.

Despite this lucrative interest from the Middle East, Osimhen has made his intentions clear. The Super Eagles striker

has his sights set on a move to the Premier League, with Manchester United reportedly his preferred destination.

Other Premier League clubs, including Arsenal and Chelsea, have also shown interest in the forward, who has been

one of Europe’s most prolific strikers in recent seasons. Osimhen’s aspirations to play in England were previously

underlined during his discussions with Juventus, where he expressed his ambition to join a Premier League club.

Currently on loan at Galatasaray, Osimhen has had a sensational season, scoring 33 goals (28 goals and 5 assists) in

32 appearances across all competitions. His standout performances have included a brace in Galatasaray’s 2-1 win

against Fenerbahçe in the Turkish Cup quarter-final.

Osimhen, who is currently in Nigeria for a short break, has been focused on delivering success to Galatasaray, stating

that his goal is to help the club secure the coveted fifth star by winning the Turkish Cup this season.

The striker’s future remains a hot topic as clubs from around the world vie for his signature. Will he choose a move to

the Premier League, or will the allure of the Saudi Pro League prove irresistible?
