Victor Osimhen is going nowhere -Napoli president

Victor Osimhen is not going anywhere unless a ‘more than indecent’ offer arrives for him, according to Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis.

At their kit unveiling for the new season, the Italian champions’ chief doubled down on his uncompromising approach towards his star’s future, saying the Manchester United target ‘will certainly wear this new shirt’.

The Nigeria international is one of the hottest commodities in football after firing in 31 goals last season, but an asking price of around £150million has stunned suitors.

With their financial restrictions, such a price would be out of the question for United.

Other heavyweights such as PSG, Chelsea, and Liverpool are also said to be competing for his extravagantly priced signature.

De Laurentiis said: ‘I’ve already told you, Osimhen will certainly wear this new shirt. If a more than indecent offer should arrive, as we have already done with Kvara [Khvicha Kvaratskhelia] and with Victor himself, we will find new solutions.’

Retaining Osimhen is part of a plan to make Gli Azzurri a force to be reckoned with for years to come.

About the new kits, de Laurentiis said: ‘I hope they are a symbol of the renaissance. The project is to bring Naples to the world. It is the beginning of a new era.
