TemplarLandry:
None.

Same here. None surprised me.

Even Osimhen is under serious pressure to join Saudi club.

To be honest, the amount of money being offered is crazy!

You are given opportunity to make in one year what you would have made in 3 years!

They want to triple his salary and ofcourse he can ask for further incentives like advert or sales commission, goals bonus etc

Vinnie2000:


For Older and Established players like Ronaldo and Benzema, CORRECT!

For YOUNGER players Like Allain St Maximin, NO!

As a Player When you Retire, you want to look Back on your Career and smile @the Trophies won and Impact you made in the Game.😊

This is the Mistake JayJay Okocha and Odion Ighalo made.
They Put MONEY ahead of Trophies/Personal Accolades and Regretted it.😒

I Just Hope Victor Osihmen does not Make same Terrible Mistake!🤨🙁

What are you even saying? Clubs now become strong by simply having rich owners or fat bank account. It goes to show you money defines football.

Reason Okocha went to Bolton over Man united was because he wanted a place he could be a king without competition - this he might not get at other big clubs. Imagine the clubs he played for in england are both in relegation. These and more are the reasons he regrets. Didn't he also go to UAE for the money?

Who told you Ighalo is regretting? He came back from the same Saudi league and played for his boyhood team, man united. It was Ole and Corona b that messed him up along the line.

Alves wey win everything dey prison like this. Make Osimhen no wise up. Trophy ko

Megabig:
Neymar

This is the only one that surprised me.

VinnyBaba:


So you are one the Nigerians Advising Victor Osihmen to leave Europe and go to Saudi Arabia league? 😏😕

This is What KILLED JAYJAY OKOCHA CAREER.

In the Mid 1990's, If he had Stayed in Germany and doing those Dribbles,
Bayern Munich or Dortmund would have Signed him and he would have the Bundesliga, UCL, African Best and even World Best.

But in 1997 or 1998, he Followed MONEY and went to Fernabache in Turkish where Nobody could see his Talent!

Then went to then Unknown PSG and then Bolton, when he was already Old!🙁

If Osihmen is Wise, he should move to Arsenal next year.
Fight to Win an EPL and UEFA champions league like Haaland.
And possibly win World Best Ballon'd.😊

If he Follows the Advice of Peeps like you, he will Regret like Okocha! 😕😒

Hmm. You can't claim to know what a full grown man wants for his life.

I wish same for him but I'll respect his decision if he goes to Saudi Arabia.

Money is the key to future not trophy,football career is short, so you got to make big money as fast as you can to secure your future..

So they don't win trophies in Saudi Arabia or they don't make impacts in their games? I'm not getting it.

Bukola94:
Kelvin is the 3rd best player currently. I will rank Karim Benzema over Neymar. Neymar is so unserious and career may not have happy ending, just like Balotelli and Adriano

what's coming from your mouth 😂,bemzema the one season wonder 🤔,abeg kelvin cannot beat the Neymar of before 2017

EngGandalf:

Wettn this guy dey talk now.. What makes you think you've a say in anybodys life decision. You even put the NO in capital letters.. Lmao!! Unbelievable.. What makes you think JJ and Odion made mistakes in THEIR own life… I'm going to guess you're probably a teenager or early twenties…you don't know how life works… person dey jump up and down to earn a living… you dey make life decisions for am. i don't think you know what it means to make 20million euros/pounds a year with very little tax, 100% safety of life and good standard of living… or you think Players are superhuman who can't be robbed, stabbed or shot at… you even say this people regretted it… Jj tell you say him regret life? Man I'm just bemused at your level of reasoning…
“As a Player When you Retire, you want to look Back on your Career and smile @the Trophies won and Impact you made in the Game.😊”

ARE YOU A PLAYER!!! If no! Always Shut up and face your own life.…

why are you so tensed about his life, Always shut up and face your own life

All these one you are saying is story for the gods. Most Players play for the money, it's not trophies that will sustain them after retirement. My own take is that they should use the money wisely. Those who play for passion can keep on playing in Europe. It's their personal choice/life not ours to decide.

Trophies won in Saudi is not recognized abi Na only european trophies nahim be football abi

geoworldedu:

Can you compare European Trophies like EPL, Serie A, UEFA champions league,etc with Saudi trophies?

Even in Europe, you canNOT compare winning Romanian or Belgian league as a Player to Winning La liga or Serie A.😒

Why do you think Ronaldo went to Saudi after he had won Everything in Europe?🙁

Why do you think Mbappe REJECTED his Saudi Suitors?😏😕

Lamasta:

Ogbeni, It is NOT recognized.😏

Ok, Tell me any known Saudi Trophy.

Europe owns Football whether you like it or not!

Europe have used 100+years to Build their League and that is Why it has Attracted players from all parts of the Globe.🙂

Saudi just wants to Buy Quick Success. 🙁😒

Okocha is presently the richest ex super eagles player...richer than players like Kanu , babayaro , ikepba , oliseh , finidi that played for top clubs and won trophies ...

Okocha is the Richest because he INVESTED his Money.
Not because he played in Turkish or Qatar league. 😕

Dude WASTED his Career.😟😒

He would have been @ Par with Zinedine Zidane, Ronaldo delima and Ronaldihno as the Greatest of the 1990's/ Early 2000's,
But he Greedily went for Money!🙁😕

If Osihmen wins Nations Cup and Uefa Champions League, this Generation will claim He is Better than Okocha!

Even in 2012, 2013, some Peeps were Arguing that Mr Back pass, Mikel Obi was Better than Okocha
because he won UCL with Chelsea and Nations cup with Nigeria.🤨😕

Ighalo was Doing well in Watford and was Banging in Goals just like Taiwo Awoniyi of Nottingham forest, currently. 🙂

If he had Stayed, Luckily he would been Signed by one of the Top Clubs.

But he GREEDILY went to China and after Money Stopped flowing,
He tried to beat a Return and was Begging Man Utd to Sign him.😕

Rio Ferdinand, Gary Neville, etc all Opposed his signature because they said Man u does not need a Chinese League Striker! 🙁😒

If Osihmen have SENSE, he should not Listen to Advice of Peeps like you.

If he stays in Europe, he has Potentials to Battle Haaland and Mbappe for the World Best/Ballon'd.

Omobude244:

1. Gabriel Veiga- a 21yrs old Europe hot player choose Saudi over Napoli and EPL teams😂 money na ur mate😁
2[b]. Saint maximin- na that guy and wilson make me like Newcastle. At a prime age of 26, Baba choose money over champions league football and a chance for a place in france squad[/b]😂
3. Sergej Milinković-Savić (SMS) - he was the pillar of Lazio last season that made them finished in second position in serie. At a prime age 27, he choosed Saudi over champions league football 😁
4. Brozovic - even at 31, he was still been chased by Europe big clubs, but then, he opted for Saudi.
5. Ruben Neves
6. Mahrez


The others nor surprise me

Correct! 👍

St. Maximin reminds alot of JAYJAY OKOCHA in 1997,1998.
Fast, Strong and Skilful and has Powerful Shots too!😊🙂

If He remained in EPL and continued with such Fine performances,
Maybe Barca or Real Madrid would have Snapped him up like Modric, Bale, Suarez, Raphinha, etc.🤨😒

Quite a Pity he followed Money!

Oshimhen can't be better than okocha even if he wins the nations Cup...which I doubt he would...and he can't win the CL with napoli ... players like maximus, jota and gabierl are all young talents that have joined Saudi pro ... he will be a fool to turn down 1m dollars a week wages with just 15% tax ...meaning he will be taking home 850k dollars weekly... presently, he earns 200k with a 50 % tax ...meaning that he takes home 100k a week ...

I just dey look you, dey Laugh.😏

If Nigeria wins the Upcoming 2024 Nations Cup and Osihmen scored 4,5goals,
he will be Hailed by Naija Fans as the GREATEST in Nigera's History.🤨🙁

Kanu Nwankwo that never Scored a single AFCON goal is placed Above Okocha by some folks.🙁

Even Mikel Obi that was an Average midfielder was compared to Okocha.😕

If Mikel had by Mistake, won African Player of the year in 2013,
He would have been Rated above Okocha today.

Okocha truly SPOILED his Career with Bad Moves.

Osihmen should be Wise and Stay in Europe! 🤨🙂

and you are misguided like your name implies when nigeria is bad

You can't start something great by not starting at all. Saudi is trying to build their football to European standard and it isn't a forbidden thing to do. If Arab Champions league looks like nonsense at the moment, eventually if it becomes very strong in the future, the winners of today will be counted as past winners too. Remember Uruguay won the world cup when it's only 4 or 8 teams that are playing it, yet it doesn't make them less a winner.

Story... okocha won Afcon and Olympics.... Mikel also won Afcon so as Emenike that finished as top scorer ...but still , okocha still remains the greatest Nigerian player of all time... He was so good that they named him twice

Reason I laugh at Messi fans cos posterity will always judge ... awards are nonsense. So if Messi likes, let him win 20 balon dors... Ronaldo will still remain the greatest.... kanu, Ikpeba , Amunike , Yekini all won African best player, won trophies... but still okocha that dint win African best remains the greatest ...they once gave the award to Diof of Senegal against okocha ... still no one remembers Diof ...but okocha is still on everyone's lips

As a Young Talent, playing for Saudi Arabia league or any Unknown leagues
Doesn't bring Glory to your name.😒

Dat's how Incredible Hulk of Brazil left Porto to Russian league and killed his career.😟
Same with Redhot Striker, Jackson Martinez of same Porto, who left for an unknown league.😌
