Al-Hilal's move is also related to Napoli's plans to sign Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez. If Nunez joins Napoli, it could create an opportunity for Osimhen to leave the Italian club. Osimhen has been linked with several teams, including Manchester United and Arsenal, but Al-Hilal's offer is becoming increasingly attractive.
Al-Hilal is willing to pay Osimhen's release clause, which is worth €75 million, in full. This is a significant advantage for the Nigerian striker, who scored 37 goals in 41 appearances while on loan at Galatasaray last season.
Initially, Al-Hilal offered Osimhen €30 million per season, but he turned down the deal. However, with a new offer of €40 million per season, Al-Hilal may finally be able to convince Osimhen to join the club. Napoli's manager, Simone Inzaghi, still sees Osimhen as one of the best strikers in Europe, and a move to Al-Hilal could be a good option for the Nigerian player.
With the new offer, it seems likely that Osimhen will accept Al-Hilal's proposal and join the Saudi club. This would be a significant boost for Al-Hilal, which would be well-positioned to challenge for the title in the Saudi League.
