Osimhen's annual salary of 10 million euros after tax is destined to not be able to join Chelsea, and switching to the Saudi Super League is the only one

Napoli are close to signing Romelu Lukaku, which means that Osimhen will have to leave, otherwise Napoli will not be able to bear the salary pressure of the team. According to the latest report from journalist Marco Conterio, Osimhen has yet to accept an offer from Jeddah National, one of the Saudi Arabia's top four giants, and Chelsea will struggle to meet Osimhen's offer as the player's current annual salary at Napoli is up to €10 million after tax.

According to previous media news, if Lukaku successfully joins Napoli, Osimhen has two next homes, namely Chelsea and Jeddah National, if it is equal or even more than the current annual salary, Chelsea will not be able to sign Osimhen at all, which means that Chelsea's annual salary before tax is quoted as high as 20 million euros, which the Blues cannot afford. In the current market, only the club of the Saudi Premier League can afford Osimhen's annual salary, so Osimhen's departure to join Jeddah National is the only option.

In fact, last year's summer window was the best time for Napoli to sell Osimhen, and now it is difficult, the annual salary of the player after the contract renewal is too high, and it is difficult for the clubs in the five major leagues to follow up. Osimhen will have a hard time getting a good European offer, either taking a pay cut or going to Saudi Arabia to pan for gold.
