Napoli turns down Al Hilal N111bn offer for Osimhen

Reigning Italian Serie A champion, Napoli has rejected a whooping N113, 428,715,789 billion offer from a Saudi club for Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen.

Al Hilal had been linked with a bid for the Nigerian in recent days, and they have now had an offer for the striker rejected by the Partenopei.

The 24-year-old is expected to sign a new contract with Napoli, according to Il Mattino (via TMW).

It is stated on Sunday that Osimhen is indeed close to signing a new contract and Aurelio de Laurentiis will not sell him this summer.

Al Hilal’s interest from the Middle East is rather firm and the club offered €130 million to Napoli and De Laurentiis for Osimhen. But it was rejected right away by De Laurentiis, who values his striker at €200 million and that is a figure which is out of reach for even Paris Saint-Germain.

Premier League clubs, Manchester United and Chelsea have been monitoring the situation of Osimhen for a while but their moves are now highly unlikely and PSG has been blown out of the water already.
