Italian side Napoli has excluded Super forward Victor Osimhen from their Pre-Season Squad to face Spanish side Girona later tonight.Osimhen continues to search for a new club as Napoli struggles to find a suitor for the forward.
Both Napoli and Osimhen remain clear in their demands as Napoli wants to cash-in on Osimhen this summer while Osimhen remains adamant to move away from Naples.
Napoli are insisting on their €120 million demand while clubs remain careful not to enter the trap of the financial fair play regulations.
Paris Saint-Germain more than a week ago agreed personal terms with Osimhen on a five-year deal while both the French side and Napoli remain world apart in valuation of the payer.
PSG wanted to pay €80 million Euros while Napoli insisted on €120illion or €90 million plus Lee which PSG has refused to accept either.
Chelsea, in their bid to cash-in on Romelu Lukaku who is the number one target of Napoli coach Antonio Conte fancies Osimhen but shy away from the club’s asking price.
Arsenal remains a keen admirer of Osimhen and are currently the leading candidates to land the marksman as the deal with PSG remains on standby but reiterates that Napoli must lower their asking price.
It is however clear, Napoli wants to cash-in on Osimhen, Osimhen wants a new challenge elsewhere, Napoli coach Antonio Conte wants Lukaku and Chelsea wants to cash-in on Lukaku.
We wait to see how this unfolds.
