Osimhen’s performance this season is related to the management issues, the Napoli team suffered a general performance degradation due to poor management, they sack the coach that started the season with them and signed another one, yet they couldn’t make it to the Champions League which is not good for them as the defending champions.
Yes, really, it's not because Osimhen's game has been bad this season and it doesn't mean he's a bad player. However, the influence of the coach and the strategy used is quite high. IN this season, even his contribution to playing as a starter is not as high as last season. The coach seems to want to show all his players well, but doesn't seem to pay much attention to the position and influence of the team. However, what is certain is that Napoli continues to fail in finding a replacement coach for Spalletti. In fact, this happened not just for a moment, which gave the impression that they were in quite a rush to decide who would be the coach. Meanwhile, on the other side, Chelsea was confident enough to propose to Osimhen for a long time. So actually Chelsea is also trying to make an agreement with Napoli. However, whether this agreement will happen or not, because it seems that Napoli have not shown interest in this.Moreover, Napoli in 2024 will have a new coach, Conte. This DNA could possibly have an influence on the transfer market for the players there. It is still unclear whether Conte will keep Osimhen or accept Lukaku as his replacement. What is certain is that the deal has been done for Antonio Conte to get a contract at Napoli until 2027.

Napoli has not been able to end the crisis. I call Napoli a team that does not know the smell of victory. Parting ways with coach Luciano Spalletti after last season's Serie A championship, Napoli is no longer himself. The presence of coach Francesco Calzona cannot help Napoli turn around the already bad situation. Coach Antonio Conte Became the fourth coach of Napoli this season, which shows the instability of the team. This is the worst season for the team and even superstar Victor Osimhen. In the transfer market, he is no longer a hot name.
Napoli sees Lukaku as the ideal replacement for Victor Osimhen. Osimhen will almost certainly leave. Both sides' contract has a release clause worth 120 million Euros in the summer of 2024. Chelsea also really wants to recruit the 26-year-old striker. Chelsea's financial conditions help them easily do that. Napoli should determine their inability to retain Osimhen and find a replacement. And Lukaku is not a bad choice for Napoli.
