Following several months of intense speculation, where African superstar Vitor Osimhen will be playing his football this season has now seemingy been decided.
The Nigeria international has been strongly linked with a departure from his current club Napoli, where he has already been cut from the existing manager Antonio Conte's plans for the 2024/25 season.

Moreover, his replacement has already been confirmed, with the Serie A outfit having officially signed striker Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea on Thursday.
It is now reported that Napoli have agreed a deal to sell Osimhen to Saudi Arabian giants Al Ahli who have offered him a mouthwatering contract worth between €25 and €30 million (R490 and R588 million) a season, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano.
The centre-forward is reported to have been offered a four-year deal in the Saudi Pro League, where he would team up with a fellow CAF Footballer of the Year award winner Riyad Mahrez, while the contract also includes a "reasonable" release clause.
However, it is further reported that the same team, Al Ahli, has agreed a similar deal with Brentford and England striker Ivan Toney, so it remains to be seen if this affects the Nigerian's move to the Gulf, with it said that Osimhen still needs to give the Saudis his final green light.
The latest suggests that Chelsea are still in negotiations with Osimhen's camp, although the Blues are yet to agree a transfer fee with Napoli.

Osimhen made 133 appearances in all for Gli Azzurri, contributing with 76 goals and 18 assists, in addition to playing a significant role in the club's historic 2022/23 Serie A triumph, which was their first in more than 30 years, dating back to the days of Diego Maradona.
