Chelsea and Al Ahli came closest to signing Osimhen after lodging deadline-day bids, but they were unable to agree a deal with the player and his club, respectively.
Unfortunately, the failure to secure a move away from Napoli puts Osimhen in a precarious position, with the Nigerian striker risking six months without first-team action after being excluded from the Partenopei’s squad for the season.
Meanwhile, some football fans have called the reigning African Player of the Year to join a Nigerian Club after the disappointment and frustration of joining top European clubs.
Here are some of the reactions:
He should just accept it
