Osimhen to play final Napoli game against Lecce – Report

By Daily Sports Nigeria on May 21, 2024

According to Il Corriere dello Sport, Manchester United, Chelsea, and PSG remain interested in Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, while the Partenopei have been monitoring Real Madrid-owned defender Rafa Marin.

Napoli are preparing to part company with their star striker Osimhen. The Nigeria international is expected to make his final appearance in a Napoli shirt this coming weekend in a Serie A match against Lecce at the Stadio Maradona.

Osimhen has a €130m clause included in his contract with the Partenopei and according to Corriere dello Sport, Chelsea, Manchester United and PSG are among the clubs watching closely last season’s Serie A leading scorer.

Gazzetta reported last week that Osimhen dreams of joining Chelsea, but no other media has confirmed this yet.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Lille and Canada striker Jonathan David is Napoli’s leading candidate to replace Osimhen, followed by Girona’s Artem Dovbyk. Romelu Lukaku has also been linked with a move to Napoli as Chelsea could include the Belgian in a swap deal for Osimhen.

Napoli will also get reinforcement in defence, something they could have done last season after selling Kim to Bayern Munich.

Corriere dello Sport claims Real Madrid’s Rafa Marin is among their primary targets alongside Alessandro Buongiorno of Torino. Marin is on loan at Alaves and will return to the Bernabeu this summer.
