Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen was rumored to be on the verge of joining English Premier League outfit Chelsea but it seems the move did not materialize as negotiations between Italian Serie-A side Napoli and Chelsea didn't go smooth until the transfer window closed hours ago.
Even in the late hours of yesterday both club were still negotiating for a possible transfer of Osimhen to Chelsea but the deal still failed.
Napoli were no longer looking for the supposedly €130 for the Nigerian. Chelsea and Saudi Arabian side Al-Ahli were the front runners for Osimhen having submitted bids starting from €60M.
With the move to Chelsea failing for Osimhen he still got a chance to go for a Saudi lucrative move before their transfer window shuts on Monday the 2nd of September 2024.
Al-Ahli are reported to have offered Osimhen a €40M per season on a 4 year contract which will be 8 times more than what he is currently getting at Napoli per season while Chelsea were looking to offer him €4m per season.
Napoli have reportedly rejected the €80M bid by the Saudi side and demanded €5m more to be added to their bid.
The move to Saudi Arabia could still be on the cards, All depends of the talks between Napoli and Al-Ahli throughout the weekend.
