Napoli has made it very clear that it will not facilitate Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen’s departure, as any team wishing to secure his services must pay the full release clause, estimated at €75 million.

According to ‘ Calciomercato ‘, there will be no negotiations or discounts, especially if the interested party is Juventus.

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has been blunt: “Under no circumstances will Osimhen join the Bianconeri unless they pay his full release clause.”

Cristiano Giuntoli, Juventus’ current sporting director and the architect of Osimhen’s signing for Napoli years ago, dreams of bringing him back to the Piedmontese capital. But the deal is highly complex, not only because of the high transfer fee, but also because of the player’s high salary, which is around 10 million euros net per year plus bonuses.
