De Laurentis: Osimhen is going nowhere!

‘Osimhen is staying, he has a contract for another two years and so where should he go? The contracts must be respected by both the parties being a bilateral relationship. With Osimhen there was bilaterality from the first moment and we get along very well. Stay calm.’

Those were the words of Napoli President, Aurelio de Laurentiis in an interview with Sky Italia on Thursday.

De Laurentiis has reiterated the fact that the 24 year old is staying at the Partenopei this summer and is expected to sign a five-year deal.

Osimhen has been linked with a move away from Napoli all season with PSG, Man United, Arsenal, Tottenham and Bayern Munich all interested in the Serie A top scorer last season.

While Napoli’s asking price of between €180 and €200 has chased all the European suitors away, Saudi Arabian sid, Al Hilal are ready to pay much more for the Nigerian.

The club are offering over €180m to Napoli and a wage package of €200m over a five-year deal to the striker.

Napoli are adamant he is not for sale while the Nigerian seems happy at the club.
