It is actually depending on the board of Napoli itself. If they want to lower the transfer fees of Osimhen, it won't be so difficult to sell Osimhen. PSG agrees to sign Osimhen at €120 million, it is a huge money. If Napoli is serious to sell Osimhen, they must agree with €120 million. Unfortunately, it is rumored that Aurelio De Laurentiis wants Osimhen to stay in team, that's why he set huge transfer fees. As far as I know, he wants €150 million if PSG wants to get Osimhen.

If Napoli is serious to sign Lukaku, they won't pay for a very expensive price. Chelsea only sets a minimum price at €29m - €30m. I think Napoli has the money, I don't know why they must sell Osimhen to sign Lukaku. If they want to sell the current players, they can sell other players. There are Giacomo Raspadori and Giovanni Simeone who can be the options to put on the transfer list. If Napoli succeed to sell these players, it is enough to pay the minimum price of Lukaku.

It is quite strange indeed with the attitude of Napoli management to complete Osimhen's transfer because it is clear that they no longer want Osimhen because they are already targeting Lukaku and also with all the problems that existed last season between Napoli management and Osimhen, it is appropriate for Napoli management to immediately sell Osimhen in the transfer market this season, if not, it is very likely that next season Osimhen's market price will fall much further.

Napoli are quite serious about bringing in Lukaku because that is the wish of their new coach Antono Conte, so regardless of the Osimhen transfer drama, I am sure this transfer will be realized, Lukak will come to Napoli and Osimhen will leave.
