MU and Chelsea are dealt huge transfer blow as Osimhen is approached by Saudi

Al-Hilal has made a contract offer for the highly requested striker Victor Osimhen.

The forward, lit the super lying in Galatasaray last season, scored 25 goals and offers five assists in 29 games for the Turkish giants.

Osimhen, who was previously discussed by Manchester United and Chelsea, is currently on loan from Napoli and will return to the Italian club this summer, where his contract ends in 2026.

The 26-year-old scored 31 goals in all competitions when he dismissed Napoli on a first Serie A-title in 33 years in the 2022-23 season and has since been assessed as one of Europe's Elite Frontmen.

However, he was forced to desperately look for a new club in last summer's transfer star after Napoli boss Antonio had signed Conte Romelu Lukaku and had left Osimhen from his team.

Despite reports from a potential move to Chelsea and a large number of Saudi sides, no permanent movement has been released.

'I hope that Chelsea fans will finally see him come to the club. I will ensure that I send him those SMS messages and calls, and make sure that Chelsea is his top priority, “Mikel said.

“But it seems that he loves the club and wants to come to Chelsea. I'm sure he has all the big clubs who want to sign him. I think if we can secure his signature, this would be fantastic for the club.

'Didier also speaks to him, shares his own ideas and what the club means to us. We all want to see Victor come to the club. When it happens, it happens. It is a huge transfer costs, but if we can match it and bring it to the club, that would be absolutely fantastic. '
