There have been many players that choose money over passion therefore if Victor Osimhen wants to go play for money, he should go ahead as I don't think there's more that he can do to win other honours to his name. He might win the league that he joins and also win the championship league but that's all as I don't think he can win the Ballon d'or. Victor Osimhen is from a poor country and his family were also poor and although he has made some money, it's always good to make more so your family don't suffer again even when you retire from playing. He should make a decision that's best for his family and not only put his own goals into consideration.

I find this very irritating. Very frequently I come across posts saying that playing in the Saudi Professional League is evil and the players do that just because of money. I never saw such posts when he was representing Charleroi or Napoli. Playing for European clubs is some sort of charity and playing in the Saudi league is immoral? What sort of logic is this? Playing football is similar to any other profession. Osimhen chose the European clubs because the salary was higher. Else he would have stayed in the Nigeria Premier Football League. And he wants to move to Al Ahli, because his salary will increase further.

There is no guarantee for Osimhen to play in the Saudi Pro League at this very young age, no matter whether Osimhen really prioritizes about money or more prioritizes about his great career in the big European leagues. Because after all, playing in the top European league also Osimhen will still get a lot of money, and playing in Europe is also not about getting a lot of money, but will also make his football career better at a young age. Thus, it is not right to choose to play in Saudi at such a young age, because football is not only completely about money, but also young players still need great experience to play in the top European league.
