Victor Osimhen, who guided Napoli to a Serie A success after 33 years and as well won the best striker in Italy for himself, has been heavily linked with a move away from Napoli
Super Eagles and Napoli star, Victor Osimhen, has dropped a transfer hint amidst speculation away from the Diego Maradona Stadium, Soccernet.ng reports.
There has been advice from football legends from Nigeria and even across the globe on why the hot striker should move away from Naples or should stay for more seasons.
The 24-year-old, who recently took to his Instagram story, hit back at those bits of advice and revealed that he would take following his heart as a priority at the end of the day.
The Nigerian star, who was excellent for Luciano Spalletti-led Gli Azzurri, has piqued the interest of some clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, and PSG, who are looking to bolster their squad with his services.
Meanwhile, Aurelio de Laurentiis is doing all he can to ensure that the Nigerian star does not slip away from Napoli’s hands by slapping a huge price tag on the Super Eagles star, and as well offering ₦6.3 billion salary to ward off his suitors.
However, in a recent interview with Soccernet.ng Managing Editor Lolade Adewuyi, Osimhen revealed the affection of the Neapolitan fans, stating that the city is the best place to be.
This has, however, raised another transfer puzzle on if the former LOSC Lille forward would stay in the city, or he would stay, as well a recent comment from Maurizio Sarri, and Fabio Cannavaro on his transfer situation.
Meanwhile, Osimhen, in his comments, has given a hint about his move this summer, revealing that he would follow his heart eventually.
“Advice here and there at the end of the day na wetin Dey my mind I go do” he wrote.
