Transfer: Al Ahli agree €80m fee for Osimhen – Report
Napoli have reportedly reached an agreement to sell Victor Osimhen to Al Ahli for €80m.
Italian transfer guru, Fabrizio Romano, revealed this in a post across his social media platforms on Friday.
According to him, if the deal goes through, Osimhen would sign a four-year contract at around £33.6m (€40m) a season – or £646,154 per-week – tax-free
A release clause will be inserted into his contract with the Saudi Arabian club.
Al Ahli have also booked a medical for Osimhen, who looks set to snub a move to Chelsea.
“Club to club deal done for €75/80m total package, Al Ahli have already booked a medical.
“Four year contract worth €25/30m per season net to Osimhen + RELEASE clause.
“Final green light up to Victor,” Romano wrote.
In a update, the Italian said Osimhen is yet to agree to the terms despite club-to-club agreement.
He added that the Nigeria International is still in talks with Chelsea.
“Victor Osimhen has still NOT given the green light to Al Ahli on terms despite club-to-club agreement.
“Osimhen, still talking to Chelsea while #CFCdelegation in Napoli trying to find a way until the end.”
Napoli are desperate to part ways with the former Lille player and are open to both solutions, as they only hope to find a way to sell the player.
His foremost summer suitors PSG have since moved on to other options, an action justified by their bright start to the season.
