Top scorer and one of the key players behind Napoli’s historic Serie A title 2022/23 season. After this, several of the giants hammered on the door of Napoli boss de Laurentis, but faced demands of over 120 million euros. In the end, Napoli did not get the bid they wanted, a very disgruntled Osimhen pushed for a loan that ended up with Galatasaray. Here, the super striker has continued to deliver, this summer comes the big transfer.
Three clubs are now ready to press the buyout clause that will be activated this summer. This time, Napoli have put their finger in the ground and accept 75 million euros for the 26-year-old.
According to NapoliMagazine, three clubs are ready to press the buyout clause button: Manchester United, Chelsea and PSG.
Osimhen has expectations of at least 10 million euros in annual salary, in the summer Chelsea were only willing to pay 8 million euros. This was one of the reasons why a transfer to Stamford Bridge collapsed.
PSG agreed personal terms with Osimhen, but the Ligue 1 giant was not willing to meet Napoli’s demand for €120 million in transfer fees.
And Manchester United? The Premier League club must and should have a striker who comes with a goal guarantee, can probably manoeuvre into player sales that allow the purchase to cover the purchase, but will struggle to meet the wage demands of Osimhen without playing in Europe next season.
The only thing that has been decided in this race is that Osimhen will take the next step in his career – within one of the biggest leagues.
