While the footballer is yet to decide, the report of Al Ahli’s offer, which includes a staggering €30 million (approx. 53 billion naira) annual salary over four years for Osimhen, has caused an uproar on Nigerian social media.
Frank Edoho advises Osimhen
The media personality, a Chelsea fan, acknowledged that while he would love to see Osimhen at Stamford Bridge, he would prefer that the Napoli star sign a deal with Al Ahli.
According to Edoho, Osimhen may not get such a mouth-watering offer if he moves to Chelsa and struggles to score goals.
“As a Chelsea fan, of course I would want to see @victorosimhen9 at Chelsea but as a Nigerian, I’d say,”Victor, are you nuts? Take the damed money and go to Saudi”. If he comes to Chelsea or PSG, and he doesn’t hit those numbers anymore, he’ll start getting offers from Bournemouth next season,” Edoho wrote.

TheTalk.NG also recalls reporting that former Nigerian striker Brown Ideye advised Osimhen’s on his future.

“The only thing that would stop him is injury, victor has massive talent and he should remain in Europe for another 5-6 years. He can go to Saudi when he is 30 years plus.”

“I also like the big money – the problem is the road to Saudi only leads to retirement That’s not the ideal path for a 25 year old reigning king of football in Africa and 8th best player in the world.”

Man advises Osimhen to learn from Burna Boy
Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG reported that a man asked why the footballer didn’t learn from his colleagues Mohammed Salah, Sadio Mane and singer Burna Boy, who launched a football academy in the country.

“I support this guyy true true Oshimen no try at all,” a netizen said.
