Victor Osimhen's time at Napoli is likely up this summer with three of Europe's top sides eager for his services
Amidst speculation surrounding Victor Osimhen's future at Napoli, European giants Chelsea, Arsenal, and Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly expressed their interest in the Nigerian striker.
According to reports from Il Mattino newspaper, the trio are prepared to offer a substantial sum of €90 million for Osimhen's services.
Napoli open to offers for Osimhen
Napoli seems willing to entertain offers for Osimhen, with President Aurelio De Laurentiis potentially considering bids below the striker’s release clause.
Osimhen, who recently extended his contract until June 2026, has reportedly grown disenchanted with Serie A and is eager for a fresh start away from the Stadio Maradona.
Napoli expecting bids below release clause
While Osimhen's new contract includes a release clause ranging from €120-130 million, there is speculation that De Laurentiis may accept an offer below this figure, given the player's desire to depart Napoli.
This presents an opportunity for interested clubs to secure the prolific forward's services at a potentially reduced cost.
Negotiations underway for Osimhen
Intermediaries are already in discussions with Osimhen's agent, Roberto Calenda, to facilitate a move to a new club. With Osimhen's impressive record of 72 goals in 125 appearances for Napoli since 2020, several top clubs are vying for his signature, setting the stage for potentially intense negotiations in the coming months.
While Chelsea, Arsenal, and PSG are eager to bolster their attacking options with Osimhen's acquisition, Napoli remains steadfast in its valuation of the player. As the transfer window approaches, the footballing world awaits eagerly to see where the talented Nigerian striker will ply his trade next.
