Manchester United, Chelsea, and PSG remain interested in Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen, according to Il Corriere dello Sport.

Napoli is preparing to part company with Osimhen. The Nigeria international is expected to make his final appearance in a Napoli shirt this coming weekend in a Serie A match against Lecce at the Stadio Maradona.

Osimhen has a €130m clause included in his contract with the Partenopei and according to Corriere dello Sport, Chelsea, Manchester United and PSG are among the clubs watching closely last season’s Serie A leading scorer. Gazzetta reported last week that Osimhen dreams of joining Chelsea, but no other media have confirmed this yet.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Lille and Canada striker Jonathan David is Napoli’s leading candidate to replace Osimhen, followed by Girona’s Artem Dovbyk. Romelu Lukaku has also been linked with a move to Napoli as Chelsea could include the Belgian in a swap deal for Osimhen.

Napoli will also get reinforcement in defence, something they could have done last season after selling Kim to Bayern Munich.
