Osimhen’s entourage denies agreement with Manchester United, Chelsea or PSG

Osimhen has been heavily linked with a transfer away from Napoli, but his next destination is still in the balance

The camp of Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen have denied any agreement with any club as regards a transfer Soccernet.ng reports.

Osimhen moved from Lille to Napoli in 2020, but he struggled to hit his stride in his first 18 months. However, he has picked form since January last year.

This season, he has been outstanding, registering 26 goals and five goals in 31 appearances. His displays have attracted some of the top clubs in Europe like Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Chelsea, PSG, and Arsenal.

However, a deal has not gone down yet because Napoli are not willing to let Osimhen leave. Also, the 24-year-old has been happy at the club.

The Partenopeans would demand at least €120million before they let their star man go, and they could demand more considering the attention he has gotten.

There have been reports that Osimhen may be inching close to a move to PSG, but his entourage has denied such talks.

 

“Fake news. It’s early to discuss about a transfer”, Osimhen’s camp told Mundo Deportivo per Fabrizio Romano.

 

Napoli are set to win the Scudetto this season, and there is a very high chance that he will leave the club. Nonetheless, his next destination is unknown, but Osimhen would fancy a move to the Premier League.
