Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport reports that. Napoli are ready to lower their asking price for Victor Osimhen to €100m for any team interested in signing him this summer.
The Nigeria international has been heavily linked with a move away from the club since last summer. But Napoli have finally managed to keep him at the club. Signing a new contract that includes a €130m release clause.UFABET
Both Chelsea and Arsenal, two of the Premier League giants, have shown interest in the 25-year-old. But both have made it clear they are not prepared to pay that price.
The Blues are trying to use Romelu Lukaku as part of a bid to get a reduced price. With new Napoli manager Antonio Conte keen to bring his former protégé back to work with him from their successful spell at Inter Milan. With Chelsea willing to sell for just €30m.
Napoli are reportedly willing to negotiate a €100m sale for Osimhen. But that figure is too high for Chelsea, who agreed a £42m deal to sign Aston Villa striker Jon Duran last month.
Although Osimhen has also attracted interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia, he is keen to remain in Europe.
For Napoli to agree to Osimhen’s switch to the Premier League, the Italian giants may have to further adjust their expectations.
