Napoli are working on a contract extension for Osimhen. He has drawn the attention to himself quite much after his amazing performance in the previous season. But as his cost is going to be quite high for the other teams interested in signing him I don't know if any team would make an official offer. Napoli must be asking for at least 130 million euros.
His salary is nothing for a player like him now and this gives Napoli an advantage to convince him for an extension. I assume he would demand a couple of million euros rise in his salary and I would expect Napoli to accept that. As he has 2 years left there Napoli had better secure his future there.
Some rumors say Napoli will release Osimhen for 150 million or some other sources say Napoli wants 180 million, but it is unclear and unconfirmed because usually the media will exaggerate the news a little.
Osimhen is an important player in the Napoli squad, especially when he was a player who contributed a lot to their title win last season. It's only natural that Napoli would want a high price for a player who has played well.
Napoli seem to be between a rock and a hard place, I mean whether they want to sell him or keep him. Because if they sell it, they will benefit from the sale, but they will lose a player who has a bright future. On the other hand, if they keep him then they won't make a profit, but they will still have a very good player in the squad.
Even if the rumors are true, I wouldn't be surprised if the fee was posted for an Osimhen and the fact is he really deserves the label. I don't think there is a loss for any club if they are interested in signing Osimhen because for sure the number of goals scored will increase with Osimhen. But as the team that has hosted Osimhen so far, Napoli certainly want him to last longer and for example a salary increase he really deserves.
But if before this summer closes there is a team that dares to make an offer at 150 million euros, I think Napoli must be willing to let him go and they don't need to be naive because Napoli also needs large funds for the club's finances to be stable or can be used to buy other talented players. There is so much profit to be made by selling Osimhen, but of course Napoli's priority is to keep Osimhen at the club.
Now it's just a matter of waiting to see if there is a club that can afford it because if you look at the current situation, only PSG has said they are ready to spend 150 million for Osimhen only on the condition that Mbappe leaves.
But if not then the chances of him staying are actually certain at least for this season.
There are positives and of course there are possibilities for negatives too in this case.
If Osimhen's performance is better or at least matches the performance in the last season then in this case he will be back in contention next season but when he fails to show his capacity then this is also a risk for Napoli so this will be a new task that is actually heavy for Rudi Garcia.
