Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen is nearing a major transfer to Al Hilal, a leading club in the Saudi Pro League, following an agreed fee of €75 million with Napoli.
The Saudi club has already arranged for the player’s medical examinations and travel logistics, signaling their commitment to finalize the deal.
However, the completion of the transfer depends entirely on Osimhen’s approval. Despite the agreement between the two clubs, the move remains pending until the player gives his final consent.
Renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano shared the update on his verified X (formerly Twitter) account Saturday evening, stating, “Al Hilal have booked travel and medical for Victor Osimhen, still waiting for his green light to the move. €75m deal in place with Napoli after new proposal revealed yesterday, depending on the player now.”
Al Hilal’s pursuit of the Nigerian forward underscores their goal to enhance their squad with world-class talent. Osimhen, regarded as one of Europe’s top forwards, continues to attract strong interest from clubs aiming to strengthen their attacking options.
Now, football fans await Osimhen’s decision on whether he will embrace a new challenge in Saudi Arabia or remain in European football.
