Napoli’s Victor Osimhen is set to leave the club next summer, according to club president Aurelio De Laurentiis. Osimhen’s move to either Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, or a top English club was foreseen during contract negotiations in the summer, as confirmed by De Laurentiis.
The striker, pivotal in Napoli’s Serie A victory last season with 26 goals, opted for a contract extension recently, aiming to secure his market value. De Laurentiis explicitly mentioned Real Madrid, PSG, and the Premier League as potential destinations, sparking interest from clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, and Arsenal.
Osimhen affirmed his decisive stance on his future in a CBS interview, stating he has “already made up my mind.” Aware of rumors, especially regarding a Premier League move, he attributed the speculation to being recognized as one of the top strikers globally.
Acknowledging the EPL’s prominence, Osimhen expressed determination to finish the current season strongly before taking a well-deserved break with his daughter. He concluded by affirming readiness to implement decisions crafted throughout his career.
