Saudi Pro League giants Al-Hilal are reportedly considering a move for Nigeria's Victor Osimhen this summer.

Emerging reports indicate that the Saudi club is preparing a lucrative offer to lure the Super Eagles striker.

According to FootMercato, Al-Hilal wants to offer Osimhen a three-year deal worth €120 million.

The Riyadh-based club is said to be keen on adding Osimhen to their squad ahead of next month's FIFA Club World Cup in the United States.

Another major signing the club is pursuing ahead of the inaugural FIFA Club World Cup is Cristiano Ronaldo from Al Nassr.

The Portuguese superstar's contract with Al Nassr is set to expire, and he has no intention of signing a new deal.

Osimhen is expected to leave Galatasaray at the end of his season-long loan spell with the Turkish giants.

The 26-year-old has been in remarkable form for the Yellow and Reds, scoring 36 goals in 40 matches across all competitions.
