Galatasaray v Kayserispor - Turkish Super League
Al-Hilal have offered a massive package to lure Victor Osimhen into joining them, while the option of signing Cristiano Ronaldo also remains.
WHAT HAPPENED?
According to a report from FootMercato, Al-Hilal have made a mouth-watering offer worth €120 million over three years to lure Osimhen into joining them. The Saudi Pro League outfit are keen on having Osimhen as part of their squad for the upcoming Club World Cup, which begins next month.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Osimhen will not prolong his stay in Turkey after a terrific season on loan at Galatasaray. The 26-year-old scored 36 goals in 40 games across all competitions to fire them to the league title. However, Napoli are believed to be unwilling to retain him, having just won the Serie A under Antonio Conte. Given that Osimhen has garnered a lot of interest from other top European clubs, Al-Hilal are desperate to sign the star striker as they dream of having a successful Club World Cup campaign to compensate for their dethroning as Saudi champions by Al-Ittihad. Alternatively, they have also set their sights on Cristiano Ronaldo, who hinted that he is set to leave Al-Nassr.
DID YOU KNOW?
The report from FootMercato also added that Juventus are keen on signing Osimhen this summer. Dusan Vlahovic has been put on the transfer market by the Turin outfit, while it is unlikely that they sign PSG's on-loan forward Randal Kolo Muani permanently.

WHAT NEXT FOR VICTOR OSIMHEN?
The Nigeria international's future remains up in the air, with the likes of Juventus, Manchester City, Arsenal, and Chelsea linked with the Napoli forward. However, the Premier League clubs hold an advantage over the Bianconeri as it has been revealed that Osimhen has a €75m release clause. Not only do Juve have considerably lower financial power at the moment, but the teams from England would also be willing to offer a higher salary. So far, it's all speculation, and it remains to be seen where Osimhen ends up.
