Napoli made a really important proposal to Osimhen, in terms of contract, very important salary, the biggest in Napoli history is on the table for Osimhen. But he has not decided and he has not agreed anything with any club.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo Osimhen will take his time. Reports of an agreement with Liverpool are not true. For sure, Liverpool and many other clubs are keeping an eye on the situation of many strikers. But at the moment for Osimhen, nothing is agreed and nothing is decided.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Osimhen and Napoli transfer saga &#8211; What are the likely scenarios?<\/h2>\n<p>It remains to be seen how the Victor Osimhen transfer saga with Napoli will end but it looks more and more likely that the Nigerian will leave the Serie A giants.<\/p>\n<p>Many top sides including Chelsea, Liverpool, PSG and Real Madrid have all been strongly linked with the forward but it remains to be seen where exactly he would end up.<\/p>\n<p>Recent reports claimed Chelsea are even willing to tempt Napoli's resolve to keep their starman with an<a href=\"https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/chelsea-transfer-osimhen-140-million-january-bid\/\"> audacious January bid<\/a> for the 24-year-old. The Blues have somewhat struggled to score goals and a player like Osimhen would be expected to come in, thrive and put all their goal-scoring problems to an end.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_136161\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-136161\" style=\"width: 850px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-136161\" src=\"https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316.jpg 850w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316-20x13.jpg 20w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316-80x53.jpg 80w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316-60x40.jpg 60w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_PS_231003_316-630x420.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" title=\"\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-136161\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Icon Sport<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>However, it is unlikely Osimhen or Napoli would agree a big move in January, especially as the forward will be representing Nigeria at<a href=\"https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/africa-cup-of-nations\/\"> AFCON 2023<\/a>.

However, his quest to better his tally from last season has suffered a hit, with the player currently on the sidelines, after picking up an injury while on international duty with the Super Eagles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Italian journalist and transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has issued the latest update on a potential Victor Osimhen transfer amid multiple rumours and reports over the past few days.
