Al Ahli had offered €80m, but Napoli upped their asking price to €85m. However, Al Ahli refused to go higher and instead turned to Brentford striker Ivan Toney, who eventually was signed in the afternoon.

Osimhen was also offered to Chelsea, which made a contract offer worth €8m-a-year - though 50 per cent of the terms were dependent on bonuses. As such, Osimhen turned down the Blues.

At Napoli, Osimhen remains on a contract worth €11m-a-year.
