U-Turn in Pursuit of Victor Osimhen: Al-Hilal Revises Proposal

In a shocking turn of events, Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal has made a sudden U-turn in their pursuit of Nigerian football star Victor Osimhen. According to renowned football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Al-Hilal has decided to improve their proposal to Osimhen and his current club Napoli, in a bid to reach a swift agreement. This unexpected move comes just hours after the club reportedly withdrew from the race to sign the 26-year-old striker due to his hefty price tag.

As revealed by Romano on his X account on Friday, Al-Hilal is now offering a significantly improved proposal, exceeding €70m to Napoli and a higher salary to Osimhen himself. This revised offer is a clear indication of the club’s determination to secure the talented Nigerian’s services. Meanwhile, Turkish club Galatasaray has also been intensifying their efforts to sign Osimhen on a permanent transfer over the past 24 hours, setting the stage for a thrilling battle between the two clubs.

Osimhen, who has been one of the most sought-after players in the transfer market, was initially rumored to be demanding a staggering £500,000 per week in salary, a figure that Al-Hilal was not prepared to pay. However, with their revised proposal, the Saudi Arabian club seems to be willing to revisit their stance and negotiate a more mutually beneficial agreement.

As the summer transfer window heats up, the battle for Osimhen’s signature is expected to reach its climax. With both Al-Hilal and Galatasaray vying for his attention, the Nigerian striker is poised to make a high-profile move that could potentially shake up the football landscape. As the drama unfolds, one thing is certain – Victor Osimhen’s future will be watched with bated breath by football fans around the world. Will Al-Hilal’s revised proposal be enough to sway the talented striker, or will Galatasaray’s persistence pay off? Only time will tell.
