Osimhen's future, contract set friends, fans on collision course

Osimhen was said to have turned down a move to join the English side, Chelsea Football Club.

According to Skysport in Italy, the Nigerian forward would prefer a move to join the Saudi Arabian side in a four-year deal with his former employers; Napoli is expected to earn £67.3m (€80m) plus add-ons.

Osimhen had earlier turned down €70m move to the Saudi Arabian club with his agent Roberto Calenda insisting the Napoli star still has unfinished business in European football, The PUNCH reports.

This development comes amid heightened transfer speculation surrounding the Napoli star, who has drawn interest from several top clubs across Europe and the Middle East.

Osimhen has a litany of clubs in the Saudi Pro League willing to break the bank to sign him, but the Nigeria international had before now overlooked such overtures, looking to continue his football in Europe, preferably the English Premier League.
