Napoli’s highly coveted striker, Victor Osimhen, who played a pivotal role in securing Serie A glory for his team last season with an impressive goal tally, has continued to showcase his exceptional form amid Napoli’s challenges in the current campaign. The 25-year-old recently committed to Napoli with a new contract featuring a release clause exceeding €100 million.
Expressing confidence about his future, Osimhen revealed that he has already made a decision and plans to unveil it at the end of the season. Reflecting on his career journey, he emphasized taking control of his decisions, acknowledging the initial challenges that eventually fell into place. Osimhen is currently focused on finishing the season strongly before disclosing his predetermined choice.
The Premier League appears to be a likely destination for Osimhen, with Manchester United, Arsenal, and Real Madrid competing for his signature. However, Chelsea emerges as the frontrunner, fueled by Osimhen’s admiration for Didier Drogba. Inspired by Drogba since childhood, Osimhen has hinted at the possibility of joining Chelsea, with recent encounters at the Africa Cup of Nations sparking speculation about Drogba influencing his potential move to Stamford Bridge.
While acknowledging the prevalent rumors linking him to the Premier League, Osimhen estimates that around 60% of discussions revolve around this speculation. Despite the allure of the English top-flight, he emphasizes his commitment to Napoli after signing a new contract and enjoying his time with the team. Amid ongoing speculation, Osimhen remains dedicated to contributing to Napoli’s current campaign before making the anticipated decision about the next chapter in his career.
