Napoli’s sporting director, Cristiano Manna, has confirmed that star striker Victor Osimhen has expressed his desire to leave the club. The 25-year-old African Footballer of the Year has been at the center of intense transfer speculation in recent weeks.
Despite signing a contract extension with a £110 million release clause, Osimhen has made it clear he wishes to end his association with Napoli. A potential move to Paris Saint-Germain fell through, leaving his future uncertain.
Manna stated, “Victor Osimhen has asked to leave the club. He wants to go… We will see in the next 20 days,” hinting that Osimhen’s future could be resolved in the coming weeks.
The transfer window is drawing to a close, leaving Napoli and Osimhen’s representatives racing against time to find a resolution. The Nigerian forward’s departure would be a significant loss for the Serie A giants.
