Al Hilal considers move for Victor Osimhen to replace Karim Benzema
Al Hilal is in talks with Galatasaray over striker Victor Osimhen as a potential replacement for French forward Karim Benzema, pending player approval.
Al Hilal is exploring the possibility of signing Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen as a potential replacement for Karim Benzema. The Saudi club has been in contact with Osimhen regarding a possible transfer, while Galatasaray has shown a willingness to sell the player for a fee of €65 million. However, the deal hinges on Osimhen's approval, particularly after Al Hilal's prior attempt to sign him was unsuccessful.
As part of their strategy, Al Hilal is preparing to part ways with French forward Karim Benzema, who joined the club in January on a contract until 2027 after leaving Al Ittihad. Osimhen's contract with Galatasaray extends until 2029, and the coming days will be crucial in determining if the Nigerian player will make the move to Saudi Arabia's Pro League.
