The pursuit of Victor Osimhen has taken a dramatic turn, as Napoli is willing to lower their asking price for the Nigerian striker. According to Soccernet, the Italian club is willing to accept €100 million for Osimhen, a significant reduction from their initial valuation of €130 million.
This development is a major boost for Arsenal and PSG, who have been vying for Osimhen's services. The striker's impressive performances for Napoli have made him a hot property in the transfer market, with several top European clubs interested in securing his signature.
Osimhen's record for Napoli is impressive, with 76 goals and 18 assists in 133 appearances. He was instrumental in the club's Scudetto triumph two seasons ago, finding the net 26 times and winning the Capocannoniere. His ability to score goals and create chances for his teammates has made him a valuable asset for any team.
The reduction in Napoli's asking price could facilitate Osimhen's transfer, as clubs like Arsenal and Chelsea can spend that kind of money if they can sell enough players to meet up with the financial rules in the Premier League. However, it remains to be seen whether they can meet the reduced valuation and secure Osimhen's services.
The transfer saga continues to unfold, with Osimhen's next destination still unknown. One thing is certain, however: the race for his signature is heating up, and only time will tell where he will end up next season.
