Victor Oshimen coy about his Napoli future

In-form Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has refused to rule out a summer move from the Serie A side.

The Nigeria international is currently one of the hottest strikers in the world, as he has scored 18 goals in just 19 league games for Napoli this season. As a result,  many of Europe’s elite sides have become interested in signing him at the end of the campaign.

He is under contract at Armando Diego Maradona Stadium until 2025 and will command a hefty transfer fee if Napoli wants to sell. Chelsea and Manchester United have been heavily linked to the player, while Real Madrid are also credited with interest.

Asked about the interest being shown in him, the 24-year-old told ESPN: “When you are doing so well, top clubs around the world are watching, mostly in the top five leagues.

“And to be able to attract interest from these top clubs shows that I am doing great, and it gives me the motivation to do even more for myself and my team.

“But I am focused on Napoli right now, and they have the final say. I just want to help my team to win matches and win trophies. At the end of the season, we will see what is going to happen, but that is not up to me. It is for the club to decide.”

Meanwhile, Napoli will reportedly demand close to €150m (£132m) to sell Osimhen, who is widely accepted to be one of the best strikers on current form.
