Saudi Pro League giants Al-Hilal have reportedly made a massive €30 million annual salary offer to sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, according to FootMercato.
The Saudi side is keen to secure the Nigerian international ahead of next month’s FIFA Club World Cup in the United States.
Al-Hilal’s proposal includes a three-year deal worth €120 million, offering Osimhen a staggering net salary of nearly €30 million per season, plus bonuses.

The club hopes to finalise the deal in time to register him for their opening Club World Cup clash against Real Madrid on June 18 in Miami. They have until June 10 to complete the transfer.
Osimhen is expected to leave Napoli this summer, despite a prolific spell that saw him net 76 goals in 133 games and help deliver the 2022/23 Serie A title. Under new manager Antonio Conte, Napoli are reportedly open to parting ways with the 26-year-old striker.
The Super Eagles striker is coming off a sensational loan stint at Galatasaray, where he scored 37 goals in 41 appearances and helped the Yellow-Reds win the Turkish Süper Lig title. Despite his heroics in Istanbul, a return to Naples appears unlikely.
Al-Hilal have long admired Osimhen and tried to sign him in 2023, submitting three separate offers. The Nigerian admitted the proposals were “tempting,” but a deal could not be struck.
Al-Ahli also came close to landing him last summer, even agreeing on personal terms, only for Napoli to hike their asking price at the last minute.
