Signing Osimone first, then chasing Manchester United captain, Saudi Arabia s giants spent over 100 million pounds to prepare for the FFC Cup

According to Saudi media reports, Victor Osimone has reached an agreement with Riyadh Crescent, and the two Premier League giants Chelsea and Manchester United officially withdraw from the competition for the super striker.

After the buzzer-beating transfer to Chelsea last summer window, Osimone joined Galatasaray on loan from Naples, but his career exploded in Turkey: 40 games of 36 goals, plus the double championship in the Turkish Super League and Cup, it made his net worth hit a new high.

Former Chelsea midfielder Mikel once revealed: "Osimone has been a Blues fan since he was a child, and joining Stamford Bridge was his dream." But now, Saudi Riyadh confirmed that the Nigerian has agreed to sign a three-year contract with Riyadh Crescent. In order to ensure that Osimone catches up with the Club World Cup in June, the Riyadh Crescent decided to directly contact the 75 million euro (£62.9 million) liquidated damages clause in its contract with Naples. This offer far exceeds the £50 million proposed by Chelsea last year, and dwarfs Manchester United's installment offer.

It is worth mentioning that Osimone rejected another Saudi team, Riyadh's victory last year (later signed Ivan Tony), but Riyadh's New Moon Club World Cup championship blueprint and his annual salary of 30 million euros after tax finally touched him.

In addition to Osimone, Riyadh Crescent is simultaneously promoting the transfer of Manchester United captain Fernandez: providing a three-year contract with a weekly salary of 700,000 pounds (including signing fees and bonuses average annual income of 65 million pounds), and asking him to reply by the end of this month - the goal is to catch up with the Club World Cup group stage against Real Madrid on June 18.

If the two deals come true, Saudi Arabia's funder will not only intercept the top goals of the two Premier League giants, but also may reshape the transfer logic of European football: when the top star's career intersections with financial freedom at the end of his career, the influence of gold and dollar football has far exceeded regional restrictions.
