Osmaine s transfer drama: sky-high annual salary becomes a stumbling block, Saudi Arabia and Juventus stage the ultimate battle!
7:28pm, 13 May 2025【Football】
"The annual salary of 12 million euros after tax will not be reduced by a single cent!" - This is the "sky-high bottom line" that Osmeon showed to the European giants.
With Romano's revelation, the Nigerian striker's transfer fate has once again become the focus of football. The Saudi league's "money ability", Juventus' Champions League ambitions, and the helpless wait and see the Premier League giants, a game that affects hundreds of millions of euros is being staged. Why did the Premier League retreat collectively? Can Juventus make a comeback? Is Saudi Arabia destined to be a winner?
Sky-high annual salary "locked" the Premier League: The logic behind the collective exit of the giants
Romano made it clear that Osmaine insisted on an annual salary of 12 million euros after tax (approximately 230,000 euros per week), which directly "dissuaded" Premier League teams including Arsenal, Manchester United, and Liverpool. Although these clubs have been coveting Osmaine's scoring ability for a long time, the balance of the salary structure has become an insurmountable gap.
In the summer window of 2024, Chelsea tried to intercept Ju Osmaine on loan + buyout terms, but failed because they were unwilling to match their salary requirements. The Blues of Burleigh era strictly controlled their salary, with the maximum salary in the team being only 180,000 pounds a week, far lower than Osmaine's expectations.
Even if Ratcliffe implements reforms after taking over, Manchester United is still subject to the burden of "high-paying and inefficient" players such as Sancho and Anthony, and it is difficult to free up salary space. The intervention of the Saudi League has completely changed the rules of the game. Jeddah citizens have offered an annual salary of 40 million euros in four years (weekly salary is about 800,000 euros), far exceeding the scope of European giants. Although the negotiations on transfer fees have broken down, Saudi teams such as Alshilar are still eyeing each other and are even willing to pay a sky-high combination of £120 million in transfer fees + a weekly salary of £1 million (tax-free). This "dimensionality reduction strike" has made European teams far beyond the reach.
Juventus' "Champions League Qualification Bet": a turnaround battle that must be won
Juventus has become the only force in European football that can compete with Saudi Arabia, but its actions depend entirely on one premise: to qualify for the Champions League next season.
Countdown to Vlahovic's departure: The deadlock in Serbian center renewal is difficult to resolve, and there is a high probability that it will be sold this summer to recover funds.
Muani's buyout is doubtful: The French striker who was loaned in the winter window did not meet expectations, and the buyout clause of 28 million euros may be abandoned.
Juventus Director Jontoli has contacted Osmaine's team, but formal negotiations must be based on the qualification of the Champions League. Juventus is currently ranked fourth in Serie A. If it eventually falls out of the top four, it will not only share the broadcasting share that will cost tens of millions of euros, but it may also be forced to give up Osmene and turn to the goal of higher cost-effectiveness.
Osmeen's contract with Naples has a 75 million euro termination fee, but it only takes effect for non-Serie A teams. If Juventus cannot reach an agreement with Naples, Premier League teams may still directly activate terms, but the players' high salary requirements are still a barrier.
Saudi Arabia's open conspiracy of "gold-dollar football": Why is Osmayen still the number one target?
Despite Osmayen's buzzer-beating team for Jeddah Nationals in the summer window of 2024, the Saudi League has not given up chasing the top center. The strategic intention behind it is far from being as simple as "showing off wealth".
Ambition to build a "superstar matrix"
Saudi Arabia tried to sign Mbappe for 300 million euros and threw out a sky-high contract before Messi transferred to Miami. Although it was unsuccessful, it had demonstrated its ambitions.
Osmain's symbolic value: 24 years old, in his year of playing, the number one striker in Africa, his joining will further consolidate the Saudi League's position as a "emerging football center".
Nigeria is the largest populous country in Africa, and Osmayen's joining will directly leverage the huge African fan market. In addition, his social media influence (with over 10 million Instagram followers) can also bring global exposure to the Saudi League.
Saudi team is good at using the tactics of "price raising" and "intercepting the hushi". For example, Jeddah nationals withdrew from negotiations because they were dissatisfied with Naples' temporary hike of 5 million euros, but quickly turned to signing Ivan Tony. This "no battle" style makes European clubs unable to defend themselves.
Osmeen's choice: the intersection of money, athletics and career
Osmeen publicly expressed his yearning for the Premier League many times, and even ranked the Bundesliga and Ligue 1 ahead of Saudi Arabia. If he joins Juventus, he can still compete in the Champions League, maintain the exposure of top events, and retain the possibility of returning to the Premier League in the future.
Although Saudi contracts are tax-free and have amazing amounts, risks such as insufficient competitiveness of the league, cultural differences, and dilution of commercial value cannot be ignored. Referring to the fact that Ronaldo won the personal prize in Riyadh after winning, Osmaine needs to weigh short-term returns and long-term reputation.
Due to the breakdown of the relationship with Chairman De Laurentis, Osmeen could not enter Conte's plan even if he returned. Lukaku's joining has declared the end of its era, and leaving the team is the only option.
The struggle between capital, ambition and dignity
Osmain's transfer is by no means a simple "those who are more expensive" but a microcosm of the change in the power structure of football. Saudi Arabia's gold-dollar offensive is tearing apart the dominance of traditional European giants, and players have to make cruel choices between money and dreams. Regardless of the final outcome, this game will redefine the transfer logic of modern football.
