But where will Victor Osimhen play for the 2024-2025 season? The question still remains, as the Nigerian striker was clearly considered on the way out this summer, after 4 years spent in Naples. Last summer, his president Aurelio de Laurentiis, always tough in business, had refused to open the door to him. On the contrary, he had even managed to get him to sign an extension last December, just to slip in a release clause of €120 million.
Since then, he has been regularly announced both by the Premier League and by Paris Saint-Germain. In the meantime, Naples has made official the arrival on its bench of an ambitious coach in the person of Antonio Conte, who has made it known that he intends to rely on his striker if he stays in Naples. Osimhen is especially asked to decide whether Napoli should recruit a new striker (Conte would like to recover Romelu Lukaku).
Osimhen expects a gesture from PSG
Problem, so far, apart from an offer from Saudi Arabia, and more precisely from Al-Ahli, nothing has come to the table for Victor Osimhen. The player is keen to look elsewhere, but his leads in the Premier League seem to have vanished. Manchester United have just recruited Zirkzee, while Chelsea are piling up attackers in their squad. According to Sport MediasetOsimhen (25 years old) is only waiting for one thing, an offer from PSG.
But it didn’t happen, and Napoli will instantly refuse any offer below €100 million. The player, meanwhile, is training away from the group due to muscle fatigue. And he still hopes that the situation will improve. Otherwise, with a contract until 2026 and a coach who would be delighted to have him in his eleven, he will stay at Napoli for one more season.
