How much money is Viktor Osimhen worth? If you ask Napoli for more than 140,000,000 euros! The Neapolitans are not giving away (for now) one of their two greatest football treasures, which brought them the Serie A title after 33 years. After the first offer of 120,000,000 euros, the owner of the club from the south of Italy, Aurelio De Laurentiis, vetoed the second, 20,000,000 euros increased offer from Al Hilal. However, the French ‘L’Equipe’ writes that Al Hilal, the biggest spender of all Saudi clubs this summer (178,000,000) will not stop and that a third offer will arrive at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium in the near future. Osimhen has meanwhile become the absolute priority of the club from Riyadh, the undisputed number one target. Not so long ago, it was Aleksandar Mitrović from Fulham, but the Serbian striker is currently only the fourth option, while somewhere in the middle is Lautaro Martinez, who has already rejected the first offer and a salary of 240,000,000 for four seasons, and the unsettled Romelu Lukaku.Victor Osimhen has been offered £1 million weekly wages to join Al Hilal.Napoli rejected a £120 million bid and £102 million bid from Al Hilal to sign him.Al Hilal are expected to place a third bid.Source: Sky Sports, GFFN. pic.twitter.com/1rCSs4H6Qu— Africa Facts Zone (@AfricaFactsZone) July 31, 2023 Napoli is showing a clear intention to keep the Nigerian goalscorer, who has two more years of his contract and earns 4,500,000 euros net per season. The Neapolitans have prepared for him a generous increase and a new salary, which is estimated to be between 7,000,000 and 7,500,000 euros per year. The former Lille forward deserved it, but with 26 goals and five assists in 32 matches, he was the most bloodthirsty goal-scoring ’beast’ in Serie A and, in tandem with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, wrote the history of Napoli.A Saudi U-turn? Mitrovic back to team training, Al Hilal redirect to OsimhenThe probability that the champion of Italy will give up both Kvaratskhelia and Victor Osimhen in the same transfer window is zero, but it is not inconceivable that one of the two will leave the south of the Apennine Peninsula. There were no concrete offers for the Georgian, and De Leaurentiis, aware of Al Hilal’s payment power, decided to test their limits. If the new offer significantly exceeds the limit of 150,000,000 euros, even a stubborn negotiator like Napoli owner will be seriously tempted. His heart rate hardly went up when he saw all those mighty zeros. But also, the individual De Laurentiis is known as a man who does not always act rationally and who at one time refused to sell Kalidou Koulibaly to Manchester United for 105,000,000, which he no doubt deeply regrets today.Napoli after Kim’s replacement – Lens ask for 30,000,000 eurosSo far, Napoli has only sold three players for €50 million or more. Record holder Gonzalo Higuain to Juventus for 90,000,000, Edinson Cavani to Paris Saint-Germain for 64,500,000 and Jorginho to Chelsea for 57,000,000. And it seems that he will get the opportunity to earn more on Osimhen than on Higuain and Cavani combined. The Neapolitans’ bank account has already been well filled this summer with the departure of Kim to Bayern for 50,000,000 and the sale of Andrea Petagna to Monza for 10,000,000 in addition to the 2,500,000 he got by sending stopper Sebastian Lupert to Empoli. Whatever letter arrives from Riyadh, it is clear that Napoli will have a handful of money that will turn into a pure profit and serious money to bring in a worthy replacement for the Nigerian who they paid 75,000,000 euros to Lille less than three years ago.##NAJAVA_MECA_7400473##
