Simone Inzaghi is working personally to convince Victor Osimhen to join Al-Hilal, as the Saudi Pro League club submits its first offer to Napoli.
The striker is on loan at Galatasaray, but not expected to remain with the Turkish side beyond the end of this season.
Although Juventus showed interest within Serie A, plus Premier League links from Manchester United, Chelsea and Aston Villa, the actual offers have been few and far between.
Al-Hilal going all in for Osimhen
Now Al-Hilal are pushing hard for Osimhen to bolster their squad.
The first offer on the table would seem to be €65m plus €5m in add-ons, though Napoli will ask for more to reach the €75m release clause in his contract.
Former Inter coach Inzaghi took over at Al-Hilal last night and is already working personally on the negotiations, trying to convince the Nigeria international in a phone call.
They are hoping to get the deal done before the Club World Cup, which will see Al-Hilal face Real Madrid in the USA.
