Super Eagles’ forward, Victor Osimhen, has secured the 16th position in Europe’s list of highest-paid footballers, as disclosed by L’Equipe on Monday.
Osimhen, who made the switch from Lille to Napoli in 2020, commands a monthly salary of €1.50m (£1.29m).
Topping the charts is Paris Saint-Germain’s sensation, Kylian Mbappe, with an astonishing monthly paycheck of £5.15 million.
As the reigning African Footballer of the Year, Osimhen is poised to ascend as one of the most valuable African footballers.
With a staggering release clause of approximately €120m embedded in his current contract with Serie A giants Napoli, Osimhen’s worth continues to soar on the global stage.
