The future of Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has been a topic of discussion, and transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has provided an update.
Osimhen, who attempted to leave Napoli last summer but had a release clause of €130m, is now on a season-long loan at Galatasaray.
With the summer transfer window approaching, the 26-year-old has been linked to several top clubs, including Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United.
However, Romano has shed some light on the situation.
“The contract of Victor Osimhen includes an extension of the [release] clause in case Napoli don’t sell the player by the end of June,” Romano explained on his YouTube channel.
“From the 1st of July, the clause of Victor Osimhen will be around €75-80 million. This is the amount, I will be more precise in the next weeks to tell you exactly, but this is the value of the clause.”
Regarding Manchester United’s interest, Romano said: “We know several clubs are looking for strikers, including Manchester United, but at this point, they are still not reaching out to Osimhen’s camp or Napoli.
Osimhen has been impressive for Galatasaray this season, scoring 19 goals and providing five assists in 24 appearances across all competitions.
