Sky Sport Italia claimed Al Ahli have tabled a €70m bid for the Nigerian international, but Osimhen is unwilling to consider the move.

The 25-year-old has a release clause of €130m in his contract, and is said to be waiting for a late proposal from European giants Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal, or Chelsea.

Osimhen's presence at Napoli is currently blocking the club's transfer strategy, with both parties eager to find a solution.

Belgian international Romelu Lukaku is reportedly set to replace Osimhen at Napoli, should he depart.
