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.
Former footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic speaks on the World Cup and shares his thoughts on who could possibly win the FIFA World Cup 2026.
He spoke about the players who are performing really well and carrying their teams.
“Harry Kane, he did three things. Two goals and one run he did. We talk about Messi for Argentina, France with Mbappe, but they have other superstars also. Sir Harry Kane is England, and the way he performed today, he needs to continue like that if this England is going to have a chance.”
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
Nigerian footballer and former captain William Troost-Ekong revealed the standout player for him in the South African team during this World Cup.
He shared that Mbekezile Mbokazi really stood out in the World Cup match against Canada.
Despite their loss, he praised the team’s performance. “It speaks volumes that Mbokazi [Mbekezile] was the best player on the South African team. I believe Okon also had considerable possession of the ball.”
