The future of Victor Osimhen at Italian Serie A side Napoli is likely to come to an end soon with Italian agent Claudio Anellucci confirming that talks have advanced with his entourage over a move to PSG.
Osimhen is free to leave Napoli this season but clubs are struggling to meet his release clause of over €100m. Reports has it that the former Italian champions are willing to lower the price to smoothen the exit of the 25 year old.
New coach of the team Antonio Conte is open to his departure and made it clear that all has been agreed with the camp of the player before he was appointed as coach less than a month ago, however he still expects Osimhen to resume for pre season training with the rest of his teammates this week.
Despite that Claudio Anellucci insist he will leave Napoli before the end of the month saying it is a matter of when not if anymore. A move to PSG according to the agent is high on the cards.
“I knew something. I don’t know if he was physically in Paris, but I knew about the movements of his entourage. Knowing how Paris moves, if the player was called to the city, it means they want to close the situation quickly”, he told 1 Station Radio as relayed by Napoli Magazine
” On the 11th (July), Napoli goes into retreat and, consequently, the coach will want to have a minimum of linearity, a base from which to start again. Having Osimhen there for only a few days would not be profitable for anyone.
*The Nigerian’s call to the camp is mandatory, but it is also ritual. Both the club and the player’s entourage are working to avoid the inconveniences related to the presence of the attacker in pre-season”.
