Transfer: Osimhen Mulls Saudi Offers

Nigeria international striker,  Victor Osimhen is reportedly considering a transfer to Saudi Arabia if after Deadline Day he is still at Napoli.

According to Sky Sports , Chelsea is considering other options outside Osimhen because of his high salary, which he has said he will not reduce.

PSG is expected to make a late bid for the Napoli, but should he still be a Napoli player by Friday midnight, he could decide to take the cash from Saudi Arabia, according to Sky Sports.

Sky Sports has reported that Saudi Arabia deal makers are targeting Osimhen and that initial contacts have been made again in the last few hours.

Al Ahli, Al Hilal and most lately Al Qadsiah have contacted the Super Eagles star.

The television channel said that the oil-rich kingdom may not be the player’s first choice, but he will hold on until the European transfer market closes Friday midnight to decide on such a move.

The Saudis have not agreed a transfer fee with Napoli but this is not expected to be much of a problem.

The transfer window in Saudi Arabia is open until October 6.

In a related development, PSG are expected to come back for Osimhen with an official offer tabled to Napoli with the Transfer Deadline Day on Friday on the horizon.

However, Il Mattino newspaper said the offer by the French club will be “low-ball”.

“PSG – with whom he (Osimhen) has had an agreement for some time – will make an offer (lowering the fateful 130 Million Euros clause set last December) only in the last days of the (transfer) market,” reported Il Mattino.

Osimhen has already agreed with PSG a five-year contract and an annual salary of 14 Million Euros.

The stumbling block is the release clause of 130 Million Euros, which PSG want to be reviewed downwards considerably.
