Victor Osimhen: Napoli star faces transfer uncertainty
While Victor Osimhen’s social media celebrations were a highlight of the day, his future still remains uncertain.
The Napoli star is expected to leave the club this summer, but the situation has been complicated by his substantial release clause.
Chelsea are reportedly interested in the 25-year-old reigning African player of the year, but the move hinges on either a reduction in his significant wage demands or the possibility of a loan deal.
However, recent reports suggest that Osimhen is unwilling to accept a pay cut or a loan move, with his agent advocating for a permanent transfer away from Napoli.
This stance has led to a limited number of offers for the Nigeria international, further increasing the speculation surrounding his future.
