Napoli President, Aurelio De Laurentiis’ comments regarding Victor Osimhen’s contract extension convey a certain level of ambiguity.
On one hand, De Laurentiis said there is a “basic agreement” on a two-year extension, suggesting a positive intention to prolong the club, but he will also accept a reasonable offer for the Striker.
This could imply that Napoli are open to selling the player this summer or any other before his contract runs out – even if he signs a new deal.
“I have said for a while that Osimhen has to stay. Then, if an offer came in that I could not refuse for the good of Napoli, we would consider it, as is only natural,” the club patron said at the unveiling of new manager Rudi Garcia.
“We already talked to Osimhen before the Scudetto celebration, so we already have a basic agreement on a two-year extension of his contract.
“The other players, that is something we need to study with Rudi because I have for many years been convinced that pre-season training is fundamental.”
“We refused to play the Gampert trophy with Barcelona, refused to play Manchester United, because we want to remain together and bring international teams to Castel di Sangro, so we avoid too much travelling.”
