Bobo at the junction u better grab the bag, the Saudi pro league aren’t that bad with what I saw of them against RM and yesterday.
Lmao…no! He should accept flamengo deal because of what you also them against Chelsea…they even beat Chelsea so the Brazilian league is not bad after alffer all…. (If they should come for him too)lmao….
Oh! Men the way you people analyse sport here one could just throw up….And is funny how this set of people are the ones advising osimhen….. lmao
The saudis are the only one who can afford osimhen.
A lot of clubs are in financial difficulties. People keep saying united or arsenal for osimhen. But in the pl most of the former players keep saying to sign isak for liverpool and arsenal because he has been proving to score in the premier league and MIGHT guarantee instant success. But clubs dont want to pay the price tag of at least 100m. A lot of teams are trying to cut corners by trying to buy players who are not strikers and turn them into one like havertz. Or teams dont want to get burned by buying players on a high and they turned out to be a bust. Happened with zirkzee, houjlind and darwin nunez. So top clubs wait for other clubs to gamble, see how they perform and poach them. Thats why brighton are making profit because lower teams tend to be the one to buy players outside the top 4 leagues, bottom half of the league players or players in other countries. Liverpool can afford wirtz because they dont spend a lot. In the 24-25 season they just got cheisa for cheap, so they can splurge for wirtz. Plus the team did well with the same players who were under jurgen klopp.
There is a shortage of strikers honestly or quality strikers. People been saying arsenal wanted bejamin sesko who plays for rb leipzig or now viktor gyokeres. Victor gyokeres played the championship and moved to sporting cp in portugal where he was scoring goals under ruben amorin. Since amorin left for united people keep speculating that he might poach him for united. But then arsenal entered the picture and might want him too. They wanted benjamin sesko, but he said he didnt want to come because hes not gonna start. Viktor gyokeres is in his prime, but he doesnt have top 4 or 5 league experience. Benjmani sesko is younger which you can have for a long time and get fitted with the league and has top 4 league experience. But the arab league now want sesko, if he goes to saudi then a lot of clubs are really going to be in trouble looking for strikers.
De laurentis the business man. He doesnt budge. You either meet his demands or dont come at all. Happened with koulibaly. Chelsea been wanted him and napoli kept rejecting it because they didnt meet the demands. But they ended up getting him with a year left on his contract. Koulibably couldnt cut it in the premier league and went to saudi arabia. What napoli gonna do is keep loaning osimhen out.
I was listening to a uk sports show and a former liverpool player said osimhen is quite contentious at times and not 100% committed. And also its hard to justify $250,000 a week to a player who had ONE good season. This is a desperate move if anyone wants osimhen he said. Loaning osimhen and while napoli have champions league next season and won the league title all without osimhen. It solidifies that he is not important to the team and still can achieve success without him. Like graham potter to brighton. Since he left, brighton have still been doing well with the last 2 managers de zerbi got them to europa league and the latest german manager. Brighton have a model they work with that allows them to succeed. Same with inter milan when they didnt have enough money and said they needed to sell players when conte wants money to spend. He left and inter got inzangi and now inter made it to 2 champions league finals since his arrival.
@Shuma Liverpool just paid 100Million for a Player Wirtz who if not for Boniface’s injury, Boniface outshined him during Leverkusen’s Championship season and well on his way to doing so last season if not for Injury again, and we also know that Boniface is not close to Osimhen, so really it is the Clubs loss because of their Prejudice towards African’s also Napoli boss ADL is using that Fabrizio Romano guy( who is a Neopolitan) to Confuse clubs and the Public and also the Rudi Galletti Fellow All Italian to taint Osimhen’s Image in the Footballing world it is very wierd what is happening around Osimhen. Howver One thing I know is that Which ever Top European CLub is Lucky enough to overlook the Nay Sayers and signs Osimhen next season the other Clubs will regret it I mean look how another player who Osimhen outshined in Seria A Kvara is performing at PSG, i mean if not for Italian Racisim did not derseve Osimhen’s MVP award in the Championship Season of Napoli (another reason Osimhen wants nothing to do with Italian Seria A)
Saudi offer will still come even at age 35 with your current form.
Stay in Europe and compete with the best.
