Victor Osimhen’s Transfer to Al Hilal Pending as Saudi Club Arranges Medical

Victor Osimhen's football career has seen significant developments recently, following his loan move to Galatasaray and growing interest from Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal.

In September 2024, Victor joined Turkish Süper Lig side Galatasaray on a season-long loan from Napoli. The agreement included a €75 million release clause, with no obligation for Galatasaray to purchase him. His reported salary for the 2024–25 season was €6 million, fully covered by Galatasaray.

During his time in Turkey, Victor made a major impact, scoring 37 goals in 41 appearances across all competitions and helping Galatasaray secure both the Turkish Super Lig title and the Turkish Cup.

Following this successful spell, Al Hilal emerged as a strong contender to sign Victor. The Saudi club reportedly met Napoli’s €75 million release clause and proposed a lucrative contract that could make him one of the highest-paid players worldwide.

Despite these developments, Victor has yet to confirm his decision, leaving the transfer pending. His next steps will depend on personal preferences and ongoing negotiations.

Meanwhile, Al Hilal have already arranged travel plans and scheduled a medical for Victor, awaiting his approval to proceed. The €75 million deal with Napoli stands after a new proposal was revealed yesterday, making the transfer now contingent on the player’s green light.
