Al Hilal will bring Osimhen back to the Saudi Pro League with an irresistible offer after Napoli refused to apologize. The “insulting” controversy between Napoli and striker Victor Osimhen still shows no signs of cooling down and is even becoming more and more tense.
Fabrizio Romano has just updated the latest situation on his Twitter that the president of Napoli Club has spoken out about the incident where the Nigerian striker said he was insulted.
Romano quoted: “Naples Club wants to avoid any exploitation of this issue. We never want to insult or mock Victor Osimhen, because he is a treasure of this team, as evidenced throughout Last summer, the team rejected all transfer offers for him.”
“The messages on social networks, typically our TikTok, use expressive, gentle and creative language. There is no intention to insult or mock him. In any case, if Osimhen think he was insulted, then this is not what the club intended.”After Napoli’s statement, it can be seen that this team chose to explain but not apologize to the Nigerian striker for his actions. This immediately received great opposition from fans, and most people thought that Osimhen’s future would end at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the latest team to join the race for Osimhen’s signature is Al Hilal Club. The Saudi Pro League representative announced that he is ready to spend 173 million pounds according to the request that Napoli previously made with the Osimhen transfer deal.
The salary and personal agreement will be sent to the 24-year-old striker’s representative, Al Hilal assures that the number will be difficult for Victor Osimhen to refuse. Currently, negotiations are said to be taking place, and results are expected in the next few days.
For the Nigerian striker, having to say goodbye to top football in Europe’s top tournament at such a young age is clearly the thing he will hate the most. But in the current context, choosing to leave with your head held high to protect your honor is out of the question.
