BREAKING: At Last, Victor #Osimhen Finally Breaks Silence On Joining #Chelsea Or Man United—-Striker of the moment, Victor Osimhen has revealed that he is focused on seeing Napoli win the Serie A title amid interest from various Premier League clubs ahead of the Summer transfer.
The Genius Media Nigeria reports that the Super Eagles of Nigeria star has been spectacular this season, scoring 18 goals in 19 Serie A games as Napoli completely dominate the Italian top flight.
Napoli sit 15 points clear at the top of the table, with Osimhen’s goals a big part of why they have been so successful as he has scored five more than anyone else in the division.
Unsurprisingly, Premier League clubs are well aware of his exploits and are interested in bringing the 24-year-old to England in the summer.
Manchester United and Chelsea have been touted as possible destinations for the prolific forward but he is not pushing for an exit, desperate to secure silverware with Napoli before leaving any possible move in the club’s hands.
‘When you are doing so well, top clubs around the world are watching, mostly in the top five leagues,’ Osimhen told ESPN.
‘And to be able to be attract interest from these top clubs shows that I am doing great and it gives me the motivation to do even more for myself and my team.
‘But I am focused on Napoli right now and they have the final say. I just want to help my team to win matches and win trophies.
‘At the end of the season, we will see what is going to happen, but that is not up to me. It is for the club to decide.’
It may be that Napoli chooses to keep hold of their star player, even if a huge bid comes in as club president Aurelio De Laurentiis said earlier this month that they have no need to sell.
‘I can tell you that Osimhen is not for sale,’ De Laurentiis said. ‘Our players are in demand, but I don’t have to sell anyone. We don’t have any debt.
