Napoli's president and owner, Aurelio De Laurentiis, announced on Friday that Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen is set to depart the Italian club this summer. De Laurentiis responded to Osimhen's recent interview with CBS, where the striker hinted at his decision about the next chapter in his career.
Despite Osimhen signing a contract extension in December, reports suggest a release clause ranging from €120 million to €130 million. Osimhen, the Serie A's top scorer last season, has been linked to powerhouse clubs such as Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, and English clubs. De Laurentiis, anticipating Osimhen's departure, acknowledged ongoing negotiations and revealed the long-known possibilities of the striker's destination.
As Napoli navigates a challenging season, sitting ninth in the league and out of the Italian Cup, the imminent departure of their star player adds further uncertainty to the club's future.
