Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal have reportedly made an astonishing offer that will see Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen pocket a whopping £1million in wages every week.
The Saudi Pro League side are not giving up on their quest to bring the world’s biggest talents to the Middle East and have apparently submitted a huge bid of £120.3million to the Serie A champions for Osimhen.
In addition to the offer, Al Hilal are also tempting Osimhen into agreeing personal terms with a £1million-per-week wage, according to Sky Sports.
The 24-year-old apparently held talks over extending his deal at Napoli, but was unable to find a resolution with his existing deal to expire in 2025.
However, Al Hilal’s huge offer is expected to be rejected after the Italian top-flight club slapped a £170m price tag on their superstar.
Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis previously explained that PSG is the only club capable of buying Osimhen before Saudi’s evident interest surfaced.
Speaking at the start of July, he told Mediaset: ‘The only club that could afford Victor Osimhen is Paris Saint-Germain.
‘If Nasser Al Khelaifi [PSG president] wants to send in a bid around £170m, we wait and we see what happens. I personally think that Victor will stay here.’
Osimhen netted 26 times last season and became the first African player to claim the coveted Capocannoniere crown handed out to Serie A’s top scorer.
His goalscoring run also helped Napoli end their 33-year wait for the Scudetto and cemented his place in the club’s history.
