Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen gets €30m-a-year contract from Saudi giants Al Hilal

Nigeria and Super Eagles star Victor Osimhen could be on his way to Saudi Pro League after another move to attract the Nigerian superstar to the Middle east nation.

According to a recent post on X from Transfer News via TalkSport, Nigerian Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has received an extraordinary contract offer from Saudi Arabian football powerhouse Al Hilal.

The 26-year-old forward is reportedly being offered a lucrative deal worth €30 million per year, signalling a potential departure from European football this summer.

Osimhen has been a standout performer for both his club and the Nigerian national team, known for his goal-scoring ability and dynamic play.

On loan in Turkey from SSC Napoli, Osimhen fired Galatasaray to a domestic double after scoring 37 goals and eight assists in 43 matches for the Lions.

The Nigerian’s impressive form has reignited interest in his signature across the world, with Saudi Arabia one of his likely destinations.

The offer from Al Hilal reflects the Saudi club’s ambition to bolster their squad with world-class talent as they continue to invest heavily in football.

While Osimhen has enjoyed considerable success in Europe, the prospect of such a high-value contract in Saudi Arabia presents a tempting new chapter in his career.

Nigerians and football analysts will be closely monitoring the situation as the summer transfer window unfolds to see if the Super Eagles star will make the move to the Middle East.

Osimhen has also been linked with moves to the Premier League, with Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea, who have Mikel Obi trying to lure the forward, all linked with the striker.

This potential transfer shows the growing influence and financial power of Saudi clubs in the global football market, as they seek to attract top players from around the world.
