Al-Hilal Offers Huge Deal to Make Osimhen Highest-Paid African Footballer
Al-Hilal are stepping up their chase for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen with a massive new offer that could make him the highest-paid African footballer ever. Reports say the Saudi club has now put forward a deal worth around €50 million per year—excluding bonuses—hoping to finally land the Nigerian star. This comes after Osimhen previously turned down a €30 million annual deal, even though Al-Hilal had triggered his €75 million release clause.
The club had aimed to complete the transfer before the Club World Cup but couldn’t get it over the line. Still, their interest hasn’t faded, and insiders say they’re willing to go all in to bring him to Saudi Arabia. Currently, Riyad Mahrez holds the title of Africa’s highest-paid player, earning over €1 million weekly at Al-Ahli following his move from Manchester City. If Osimhen accepts the offer, that could soon change.
