He reportedly favours remaining in Europe, particularly dreaming of playing in the Premier League, where Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United have previously enquired about him.
Saudi Pro League giants Al-Hilal made the most concrete offer, but the Super Eagles star rejected four offers from the club up to a whopping €45 million per season, forcing the deal to collapse, per Football Italia.
This leaves Galatasaray as his most likely destination, though multiple reports suggest an unnamed Italian club and other European clubs are still in the race.
Osimhen enquires about crypto trading
The Napoli-owned forward has a high taste in fashion and rocks expensive gold and ice jewellery, but is also an investor in businesses.
His latest move is to venture into digital investments. According to Nigerian influencer and self-acclaimed alpha male, Shola, he has made enquiries about cryptocurrency trading.
“Victor Osimhen just said, Shola, how do y’all do this Crypto thing? I’ll be onboarding him soon. Crypto With Shola dey for everybody.😂😂❤️,” he wrote on X.
Top Nigerian celebrities, particularly Afrobeats star Davido, have been involved in cryptocurrency.
The influencer confirmed that the football star will start full-time classes soon to get him acquainted with the crypto ecosystem, and it generated responses from the fans.
