Napoli has reached an agreement with Al Ahli so inevitably of course Osimhen must be ready to play in the Saudi Arabian league at this time, previously Chelsea and Arsenal were interested in signing him but for some reason Napoli actually refused to sell Osimhen to the club although the offer they made was not small than Al Ahli at the moment, if Osimhen plays in the English league of course he has a great chance to continue to achieve every achievement in his career,  but precisely at this time Napoli seems to have thrown Osimhen to the Arab League and I think maybe they are deliberately doing it at this time in order to make Osimhen career dim, from the beginning Osimhen has stated that he only wants to leave for PSG but Napoli also rejected the offer made by PSG which reportedly touched the price of 100 million euros, but it looks strange if Napoli currently accepts Al Ahli offer which only pays 80 million euros, doesn't it look like a conspiracy after Osimhen refused to play again for Napoli?
This might be true but I actually doubt it from the fact that they maybe agreeing to this simply because they don't have any other option left except Chelsea who likely will prefer a loan deal with an option to buy deal than this. Every other teams interested in Osimhen has given up mostly because of the fee requested by Napoli while also considering his wage demands, obviously it will be difficult for clubs to remain interested in him except they are desperately in need of a striker like Chelsea.

I think in the next few seasons he will still get a national team call-up to play  like Kante played for Al Ittihad, but his move to Arabia will actually make him no longer play in the Champions League so maybe people will forget about him in the future.
As long as he do well there, he will continually be called by the National team because no body can ignore how good he is and may possibly even get the interest of European clubs there and return back to European football if he doesn't loses form

Is it me or is Al-Ahli trying to build an unstoppable force this season? Getting Victor Osimhen who is about to undergo his medical today (if he hasn't) and now Al-Ahli have gone out to splash a £40m for Ivan Toney, medical to be taken in London and where on Earth is Chelsea while all these are happening? Chase two players and losing them both to one club on transfer deadline day.
I don't see any reason why Chelsea need to go as far as trying to get a player and can't come to a conclusion of getting the player, Enzo Maresca is going to get himself into big trouble if he fails to deliver this season and having Jackson as the only option to play his attack is not going to yield anything productive.


Chelsea already has enough strikers that can be managed until the transfer window opens again. But the problem is that almost all of them are average players. You wouldn't blame Chelsea for their slow approach; they are under the financial fair play rules, which means they need to balance their books. The club wanted to offload some players, and it seems it is not happening as fast as they want.

Meanwhile, the Saudi League is not under any financial control and also has the support of the government. So they can offer players what no European club can give as wages. It is in the news that Chelsea has also offered a deal to Victor. The ball is now in the court of the Nigerian to make decisions on the club he wants to move to. The option is now "Money or Passion".

for now, Arsenal is certainly only looking for alternatives to fill their squad. Arsenal still has Dafid Raya as the main choice. and Neto can be his backup.
Ramsdale didn't get many opportunities to play at Arsenal. and I think the decision to leave was quite good. of course, he wants more playing minutes in the team. There is a tight competition at Arsenal and he might get it at his new club.
I just hope Neto also gets the opportunity to play at Arsenal.
If you do not get a place in the core squad, it can affect the performance of the player's quality so deciding to go to another club is a much better choice. The competition faced by Ramsdale is indeed quite tight where Arteta entrusts Dafid Raya as the main goalkeeper and Neto as the second layer. There is no opportunity of playing will make Ramsdale lose the opportunity to improve the skills they have and should play in clubs that need him.

Neto will be a coating in the Arsenal team and maybe Arteta will try to rotate players when facing a much weaker team. Rotation is sometimes needed to keep the core players fit and not face injury problems. If this can be used by him, there is an opportunity for Neto to show good talent when entrusted to play.

I think choosing between the two should be one of the hardest decisions for Osimhen. Osimhen is a quality striker but last year didn't go as expected. Despite that, he still scored a lot of goals. I think the astronomical fee the Saudi team will give him will confuse him. However, if the choice is between Chelsea and Saudi Arabia, I think Chelsea will be the reason. The Premier League will be a better match for him.
Of course the Premier League is the best port for Osimhen, he can build his career there and play in the best league in the world better than playing in the Saudi Arabian League which is still at a very low level. Osimhen still has a bright future, he is still young, he also has extraordinary talent to become the best striker. The deal is close to being done, perhaps the transfer will be made official in the final minutes of the transfer window closing. Osimhen must learn from Oscar experience, at that time he was at the peak of his performance and was a regular player in the Brazilian national team, but after moving to the Chinese League, his career immediately declined and he lost his place in the Brazilian national team.

Latest news, Al-Ahli to Italy to do advance talks with Victor Osimhen.
Of course, because previously, Osimhen said "NO" to go to the Saudi league. But since the transfer market will be closed soon, maybe their agent has no other choice.


Source: Chelsea have approached Napoli tonight to submit an official bid for Victor Osimhen.

And in the end, this news really made Chelsea a little more panicked to try to approach Osimhen again. In fact, Chelsea immediately contacted Napoli to also discuss Osimhen, including salary. And Al-Ahli just have to wait and see how the negotiations between Napoli and Chelsea go, if it fails, then Al-Ahli will immediately make a decision.
To be honest, I'm now getting tired of the speculations and reports concerning the future of Napoli striker Victor Osimhen. Since yesterday, numerous sports outlets have emerged with some suggesting that he's more likely to move to Saudi Arabian club Al Ahli because of the mouthwatering deal the club is offering while others suggests he'll chose Chelsea over a Saudi club since he'll want to remain in Europe.
With the news coming tonight that Chelsea have made an official bid, I think they're more likely to sign Osimhen and I'll be very happy to see that deal pull through

The Premier League will be a better match for him.
Osimhen's agent openly said that Osimhen still deserves to be in the European ranks, of course this is a strong enough code that Osimhen is still thinking about his career as a European star player, of course Chelsea is very advanced compared to the Saudi club, but until now at the end of this transfer window there has been no club that is really serious about wanting him, even though Osimhen last season with his injury was still able to compete on the top scorer board, of course this is a bit difficult for him, the club is considering the fee requested by the Napoli club so that he has difficulty leaving and playing the new season with another club because his current desire is to leave Napoli.

At the end of the transfer window no one has brought Osimhen from Napoli because the cost is certain, yes he will leave for free next season, the fee requested by Napoli is very difficult to accept for clubs that are serious about wanting him because they are still considering whether Osimhen is really healthy overall or not, that's also the part where he scored this goal is a difficult situation for him, I think he will stay at Napoli this season.

I'm tired of hearing this Osimhen transfer is transfer news every day, osimhen should decide his future and let people rest, many Chelsea fans are worried about Victor Osimhen that they want him to come to the club because they need a good striker who can help the team, osimhen news looks like a player that doesn't know how to decide for his future, Saudi Arabia club came for him and they want to pay a good salary amount for him and if he wants to go to Saudi pro league because of the salary he should go and let the news about him over.

Every news of Osimhen came out with the issue of salary and I believe that if not because of the Demand for high salary I believe that Chelsea would have signed Osimhen since the beginning of the transfer window, early this morning again, another news came out that Napoli agreed with the Saudi Arabia club and the medical test is already book, the only thing they are waiting is green light from osimhen and the salary is very good, so Chelsea should not even stress their self because osimhen is going for money.
The future of Victor Osimhen almost close after two club Chelsea and Ah Ahli become the interested want to sign him, Chelsea have reach personal agreement about salary payment after releasing deal with Napoli about fee transfer.
Left few days later before window transfer close and Victor Osimhen have loss regular position with Napoli if can't find any new teams. Have been longer time with Victor Osimhen transfer update but still not release yet which one his future club for this season after Antonio Conte kicking him out from main squad.

You will tired around two or three days later clearly with the future of Victor Osimhen keep staying or reach agreement deal between Chelsea or Al Ahli, PSG have withdrew their interested for signing Victor Osimhen after high bid offer fees transfer from Napoli and Chelsea want to sign him with loan option on the first season before buy back permanently.

There are a lot of uncertainties about Victor Osimhen transfer. It seems no club is focused on Victor Osimhen signature right now. Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli Saudi seems to be the only club who are serious about bidding for Osimhen. Victor Osimhen is only 25years old, he is too young to transition from Napoli which is a top club in the Serie A to the Saudi Pro League. Osimhen is in his prime and should not be concerned about making money at this time. His focus should be winning trophies and making a name for himself in football. People will forget his name if he moves to the Saudi Pro League. Chelsea wants to reduce Osimhen salary to £130,000 and Al-Ahli are offering a salary of £400,000 per week. I hope he makes the right decision.

he absolutely must refuse in every possible way the transfer to Saudi Arabia, it would be a reckless and crazy gesture to accept that contract, as you say he is still a very valid player and the premier league will ensure him a brilliant future, he seems very suitable for that type of championship with an important club, Chelsea could accept the offer given Lukaku's transfer to Napoli so if they are interested they would do well to rush to that club Cheesy

Man, I still can't believe this, how is it possible that after a great season on loan at Real Madrid, Kepa has now joined Bournemouth. Cheesy

An unusual career decline chosen by Kepa but it seems he also has no other choice but to join the mediocre EPL team and maybe he has also resigned himself to the current situation at Chelsea. Actually Kepa still hopes that Real Madrid will sign him again but considering Lunin's departure has not happened until now then his chances of returning to Los Blancos are gone.

With this at least Kepa will be Bournemouth's main mainstay for the goalkeeper position and that will help Bournemouth secure their goal from conceding many goals, especially if we remember Kepa is one of the goalkeepers with good reflexes.



Source: https://twitter.com/afcbournemouth/status/1829066461534462195
I'd prefer to sell Kepa instead of seeing him stay, but loaning him is not that bad too. Also, it's reported that he agreed a wage cut for the contract extension and Bournemouth move. I have nothing to complain about this move.

But it's not only him; we have another Chelsea goalkeeper loaned to another club.



It's reported that Petrovic is joining Strasbourg as a new goalkeeper. No doubt that Petro is being sent there to Chelsea's sister team.
But what is quite regrettable is why he had to go to Bournemouth? even though he deserves to play for one of the prestigious teams. Maybe the offer did not come and we also can't expect much from him. But sometimes rather than staying at Chelsea with so many goalkeepers and it is impossible to get a turn to play, this is the right decision.

I previously received information that there are at least 8 goalkeepers at Chelsea and I don't know why they did this. Normally each team only has 2 to 3 goalkeepers, and this exceeds the capacity of a club itself. With the departure of Kepa and Petrovic, this leaves Chelsea with only 6 goalkeepers left, but if you think about it, that number is still too many.

Arsenal have shifted their attention to Bournemouth Goalkeeper, Neto. I think they have agreed a loan deal with him with no obligation to buy.
It is evident that this Arsenal team lack a concrete plan. Now, it seems they are just scrambling and grasping at whatever is available in the market.
I agree.
Now that Ramsdale is gone, I think with a Neto, they will get a figurehead experienced backup. Neto gets a low-pressure job and earns a decent wage.
They keep the money they got from Ramsdale sales. Win win for everybody.

It will raise the level of awareness in the country and naturally they will get better.  But I don't think it will change their national team much in the near term.  It takes generations to change a culture and in sports increase awareness is the first step.  More amd more top players will go there because they are using government money to pay these salaries so they are playing with a loaded deck.

Well in Qatar they did a great job, Saudi Arabia beat the world champion, making many bettors lose thousands of millions of dollars who had obviously bet on an Argentina that is always seen as the favorite, of course this is seen that way because of Messi, Messi really is a world icon, but I think the improvement of the Saudi teams is a fact, not only because of the arrival of a CR7 there, they have been improving their level of football a lot and I like that, because the other countries that are always the best have to be careful of these teams that go to a World Cup and with many options to dream of winning the Cup.

LUCKMCFLY, this post reminds me of one of the biggest surprises in football history. Qatar produced some unexpected results like Cameroon beating Brazil and. Morocco thrashing Belgium. The Saudi government is investing so much in football because they see it as a tool to showcase the transformation of the country. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has a plan to make the country an investment hub by changing some policies to make the Gulf state moderate.

The investment in football should also be able to increase local participation, thereby growing local players that will improve the league and also attract foreign investors. The effect of this huge investment is still scratchy; maybe in a few more years, the fruits of this input will become visible.

Arsenal have submitted about £17m to Espanyol for their Goalkeeper Garcia. He’s likely the replacement for outgoing Aaron Ramsdale.

I think it is a good move. Raya can't be in goal in all competitions this season. A competent 2nd  choice is needed for emergency sake,
Injury, suspension, illness, family emergencies.

Being a second choice does not translate to playing any guaranteed match, but if there is need, Arteta will make available. And of course nobody will expect a highly rated keeper for that role since Arteta’s used to not changing his Goalkeeper, Raya.

They won the Golden Glove award last season because Arteta was bold enough to buy Raya and drop Ramsdale.
If this new goalkeeper will bring more steel and competition for Raya i don't have an issue, especially since it's Arteta requesting for such. I'm not with them in training so maybe he has seen something with Raya we don't know about. If Arteta wants him then I have no issue.
As an Arsenal fan, I wanted the team to keep Aron Ramsdel because he is good and he is reliable, but I understand that he is also a world-class goalkeeper that cannot stay in the bench for his football carer, so he need playing time which my coach Arteta didn't guarantee him and that is the reason he left the team.

This one too cannot have enough playing time because the Arsenal aim of winning title will never allow the coach to be gven chances for any player he is not sure of, so I will be expecting Arsenal to add some money if what they have already submited is been rejected.
Arsenal have shifted their attention to Bournemouth Goalkeeper, Neto. I think they have agreed a loan deal with him with no obligation to buy.

Spending an entire season with Spanish and European champions does necessarily mean that Kepa Arrizabalaga will be signed to the Real Madrid club. He came back to Chelsea and saw that Robert Sanchez is now the club's first choice goalkeeper so he has no other option than to leave the club if he truly wants to get playing time. What I don't know now is if Bournemouth manager will make him the club's first choice goalkeeper but if he can achieve that, then I think it'll be a good move for Kepa.
Well I think that of course Kepa will be the main goalkeeper of Bournemouth because while the main goalkeeper is Neto who is already 35 years old and I think Bournemouth would rent a player like Kepa if they were not going to make him the main goalkeeper, because Kepa's salary is apparently big.
Of course Bournemouth is not the most titled club, but apparently there were no other adequate offers and Kepa decided that it would be better, besides he extended his contract with Chelsea for another year and apparently if he performs well in Bournemouth, he can return to Chelsea.

Chelsea is his last resort to remain in Europe this season and the only way Chelsea might be able to get him is just through a loan with an option to buy and possibly meeting Napoli transfer fee demands.
I hope Chelsea won't be giving him a  weekly wage above 300k it is too much for us now, this will bring other issues to the club later on if any other stars what to sign/renew their contract with Chelsea.

Osimhen and his representative knows what they're doing, transfer deadline is today and if nothing positive happens and this deal collapse I believe the Saudi side is his next approach because if he stays at Napoli he won't even be considered as a Napoli player, reason being that Conte won't see him (Osimhen) as one he wants in his project and with Lukaku getting ready to get his debut for Napoli is like they're telling Osimhen "leave now or you're nothing to us", is left for him to decide if Chelsea is his last choice or going off Europe. As for the money Osimhen is demanding I think Chelsea can afford it after all the spend more on players who won't even kick the ball till the season comes to an end, they can still sell players to cover up.


Quote
While he deserves such a wage for a player of his profile he knows Chelsea won't be able to give him this and I guessed the best he might be having here at Chelsea is the current weekly salary he earns at Napoli especially with his last season injuries records.

He is demanding such amount because he knows what's at stake, Osimhen wants to be in control of this deal and he knows how desperate Chelsea wants a striker so he wants to call the shots, take a look at how the Chelsea's management are roaming around this deal while they have a second option which is Ivan Toney but they still prefer to soak themselves in this Osimhen's deal. That amount I believe is x2 of what they're paying him at Napoli, if I'm not mistaken so why can't Chelsea just pay and move on?🤔
The money is much but if it happens the pressure to deliver would be on him and I hate to say this, Osimhen is putting his career under massive pressure that's if Chelsea pays that amount to get him because much will be expected of him especially from the fans so is best to give him what he wants and let's see how he preforms.

Although Chelsea is the only club that can stop him goes to the Saudi. But it will worth only if he is agreed to decreasing his wage. It's kinda crazy if Osimhen demands close to the his current wage at Napoli. I'll say no if he still demands more than 300k per a week. It will be burdening us.

The loan with obligation buy next year makes it so much easier to balance our books. It's also a sense offer. But if osimhen still demands big wage, and i hope we step away from him.

Saudi Arabia clubs doesn't give up because Victor Osimhen is nothing compared to other strikers, he's actively available and can comprehend tough games especially under pressure. The money table for Victor is huge and irresistible, it will omly take passion and courage for the Nigeria international to deny such a deal. On the other hand, the second party, Chelsea have plans for Victor Osimhen if he finally agreed the terms on the English side, it would be amazing because he gets to accomplish his dreams by playing for Chelsea.

Then again I ask myself this question, why haven't Victor Osimhen turned down Chelsea offer and move quickly to Saudi Arabia? Perhaps this is the main time for Victor Osimhen to thoroughly make his choice inother to secure his football career, for me it's a win-win for him, he accepts to move to Saudi Arabia, it's because of the money and if he actually moves to Chelsea, it's because of passion. At the end of the day, Victor Osimhen will make his choice which I consider to be best for him.
