Saudi Pro League giants Al Hilal have become the latest club to join the race for the signature of Nigeria's Victor Osimhen this summer.

According to reports, the Saudi club wants to part ways with Karim Benzema and replace the veteran striker with the Super Eagles striker.

Osimhen has been in impressive form since joining the Turkish champions two seasons ago, registering 59 goals in 74 appearances across all competitions.

His staggering numbers in Turkey have attracted interest from top clubs in Europe, with the likes of Barcelona and Atletico Madrid reportedly interested in the services of the 27-year-old.

According to Sky Sports, Al Hilal are considering making a move for the former Napoli striker this summer as they look to offload Karim Benzema.

The Saudi club, however, face a negotiation with Galatasaray over a suitable transfer fee for their talisman, with the Turkish champions reportedly open to a sale in the region of €65 million.

The move will also depend on Osimhen's willingness to agree to a move to the Saudi league in what is considered the prime of his career. It remains to be seen how things will unfold in the coming days and weeks before the transfer window officially closes.
