EKO HOT BLOG reports that the President of Italian football club Napoli, Aurelio De Laurentiis, has refused to rule out the possibility of selling Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen anytime soon.

Despite Osimhen’s impressive form for Napoli, there are reports that Premier League giants Manchester United and Chelsea are interested in securing his services this summer.

Osimhen arrived in Naples from Ligue 1 club Lille in 2020 and has since become one of the most fearsome forwards in the world.

The 24-year-old has scored 20 goals in 24 outings across all competitions for Napoli this season, including a goal in their 2-0 win against Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday night. This match also marked the eighth consecutive game in which Osimhen scored for Napoli.

In an interview with TNT Sports Mexico, De Laurentiis admitted that he would love to keep Osimhen at the club for a long time, but he would not be able to turn down a tempting offer for the player.

“I am very good at making contracts, so when they come to me, they are blocked, so keeping them here won’t be difficult,” he said. “However, never say never. Sometimes there are offers you can’t refuse, so you never know. To me, we’ll see them shine for a long time.”

The comments from De Laurentiis will undoubtedly fuel speculation about Osimhen’s future at Napoli, particularly with the growing interest from Premier League clubs. However, it remains to be seen if either Manchester United or Chelsea will make an official approach for the Nigerian striker.
