Napoli rejected a hefty million-dollar bid for Osimhen.
Napoli Stands Firm on Osimhen Amidst Transfer Speculation
Victor Osimhen, Napoli's star striker, is attracting significant interest from several top clubs, but the Italian team is not eager to part ways with their prized asset during this transfer window.
Osimhen joined Napoli from French club Lille in September 2020 for a fee of 75 million euros. Since then, he has proven to be a valuable addition to the team, having been the top scorer in Serie A last season. His current contract with Napoli runs until June 2025.
Despite the interest shown by clubs such as Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea, and Al Hilal of Saudi Arabia, Napoli is determined not to sell Osimhen. Aurelio De Laurentiis, the club's owner, has mentioned that the potential offer for Osimhen could reach the significant psychological mark of 200 million euros. However, Napoli has so far rejected both bids from Al Hilal, with the latest offer being 140 million euros.
Reports suggest that Turkish top club Galatasaray Istanbul has also shown interest in signing Osimhen, potentially offering a new record transfer fee. Yet, Napoli remains steadfast in its decision to keep the Nigerian striker.
The Saudis are expected to make a new offer for Osimhen, potentially reaching the 200 million euro mark. It remains to be seen whether Napoli's resolve will hold in the face of such a substantial offer. For now, there is no immediate pressure to sell Osimhen in the current transfer window.
In the meantime, Osimhen continues to shine on the pitch, contributing to Napoli's success and proving his worth as a valuable member of the team. The future may hold many possibilities, but for now, Napoli stands firm in its decision to keep its star striker.
