Following speculations surrounding Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen away from Napoli, Italian pundit Fabio Santini claims that it will cost any potential club €120m to sign the Nigeria striker.
Speaking to Italian publication Il Mattino recently, the Nigeria striker recently suggested that he may leave Napoli in the summer, amidst interest from Manchester United, and other several clubs in England.
“Osimhen? According to my information, whoever wants the blue center forward will have to pay a very important sum to snatch him from De Laurentiis’ Naples. The blue club has set a very high price.
“ Victor’s quotation is around €100m.” Santini said as reported by Area Napoli via Punch.
Napoli reportedly rejected a €100m bid from Newcastle in January 2021, but the Magpies are still interested in the Nigeria international and the same is true of Manchester United and Arsenal.
The 23-year-old Nigeria goal poacher has scored 38 goals in 76 appearances with the Parthenopeans since 2020 and has as well been in blistering for all season scoring 10 in 14 competing games for the Azurri.
