The future of the Super Eagles striker remains uncertain as the club contemplates keeping the prolific forward amid challenges in finding a suitable replacement, as per Italian transfer market insider Vincenzo Morabito.
Victor Osimhen, Napoli’s forward, has repeatedly expressed his desire to leave the Campania club. The striker is linked to, among others, clubs in the Premier League and Saudi Arabia. Watch out for PSG, who have never denied their interest in the former Lille player.
However, at the moment, no convincing offers have been received by Aurelio De Laurentiis. The president does not accept proposals below the €120-130 million provided for in the player’s contract clause.

Football market insider Vincenzo Morabito made some statements during Microfono Aperto, a program broadcast on Radio Sportiva:
“It is not certain that Osimhen will leave Napoli. Furthermore, the Azzurri club has not found adequate replacements. Romelu Lukaku cannot be a replacement, even for age reasons. This is why Napoli is considering making a decision that, if confirmed, would be sensational: keeping Victor Osimhen. We will see how the market evolves.”
