Thursday, June 27, 2024 - Napoli's new coach, Antonio Conte, has confirmed Victor Osimhen's desire to leave the club this summer.
Speaking at a summit alongside the club's president Aurelio
De Laurentiis this week, Napoli manager Conte confirmed there is an agreement
between the club and player to allow Osimhen to leave this summer.
“I’m aware of his situation, I know there’s an agreement
with the club so it’s a different case compared to others,” he said.
“There’s a pact between Victor and Napoli on his future and
I accepted that.”
There have been reports linking him away from the Italian
club for months, but it has now been confirmed Victor Osimhen will join a new
club.
Osimhen has scored 76 goals in 133 appearances across all
competitions for Napoli to emerge as one of the hottest strikers in world
football.
The 25-year-old finished as the highest goal scorer as
Napoli won a drought-breaking Scudetto in 2022-23 and won the Africa Footballer
of the Year award last year.
Paris Saint-Germain are the frontrunners to sign the Nigeria
international with Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United also linked to the
striker.
