Osimhen is only 26 years old. He has a long journey ahead of him. He should have chosen a club in the Premier League or Serie A. But he is only interested in signing with Al Hilal for the money. If he goes to Al Hilal, Osimhen will earn a big amount of money for a few years. But it will not be good for his career.
It's funny how we easily conclude that these players are fullish enough to just make a career defining decision without a proper thought about it. Believe me that we are just eating from the crumbs of information we get from media houses, the players and their managers alone knows better what's really going on and why certain transfer doesn't end up going as expected and an alternative option is being looked into.
Deciding to go to the Saudi league is just a matter of choice based on a well thought out process. It's either that every variable doesn't support him going to the premier league and he decides he will end up going to the Saudi league or that he really wants to play for the league. Al hilal is not a bad club after all and a lot of good players are available in the club that he can play along with. If that's his decision, then there's no point of tagging his decision a stupid one, football is all about the passion and money, if money is his driving force to al hilal, then it's better he follows what he wants. It's his skill and he has the right to decide how to use It.
Sorry Mate, I can't agree with you. We know that Al Hilal has a lot of talented players. But the problem is that the Saudi Pro League is not very competitive. The Premier League, La Liga and Bundesliga are very competitive. And we always talk about these leagues. The fans don't have much interest in AL Hila.
I mentioned the Chinese League as an example. I remember a few years ago we saw that the Chinese League suddenly spent a lot of money to improve their clubs. Several star players went to the Chinese League. But now these players are gone. In turn, they can't return to the Premier League. Even the Chinese League is not that good.
Saudi clubs are spending a lot of money to buy players. If they can continue this trend for 8/10 years, then the Saudi League will undoubtedly be very competitive and improve. But I doubt whether the clubs can continue to spend so much money for such a long time. And if they can't do this, the careers of the young players who have gone to the Saudi league will be in crisis. I say this from past experience.
