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.

Yeah there is such rumour as well. But how many teams would like to pay 150 million euros or over that price for Osimhen now? There are surely quite many teams that can afford him. However when it comes to the will to afford him I don't see that many teams. It is even said that the only interested team now is PSG to pay that much.

PSG are working on Vlahovic deal behind the scenes as well though. If they decide to sign him instead then I will believe in Osimhen to stay at Napoli this summer surely. But in case he doesn't still extend his contract in this season and has one year left on his contract then Napoli will really have to sell him to not lose him without transfer fee.
Victor Osimhen is still very much young as a player to be deeply perturbed with the continuous news of his potential transfer to other clubs or wether he'll remain at Napoli beyond the end of the summer transfer window.
The Nigeria international should be more focused in putting out a better performance than the one he had last season and with that unimaginable number of clubs will be seriously be asking for his signature come next summer transfer
