In a major development, Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has officially rejected a move to Saudi club Al Hilal, despite an agreement reportedly in place between Al Hilal and Napoli for a fee in the region of €75 million.
Sources confirm that Osimhen has turned down the personal terms proposed by Al Hilal, signaling his desire to continue playing in Europe. The striker’s decision leaves Al Hilal in a difficult position as they look to provide new manager Simone Inzaghi with a top-tier forward ahead of the new season.
Meanwhile, Galatasaray are preparing to intensify their efforts to sign Osimhen, with the transfer race now blown wide open. Several European clubs are also expected to re-enter the race for the Nigerian international, who remains one of the most sought-after forwards on the market.
