Serie A: Selling Osimhen will be emotional — Napoli president, De Laurentiis
Napoli president, Aurelio de Laurentiis has said selling the club’s talismanic striker, Victor Osimhen will be more emotional than financial.
Osimhen could leave the Partenopei this summer with a release clause of around €120-130m reportedly inserted in the new contract he signed last December.
Premier League giants, Chelsea and Arsenal as well as Ligue 1 champions, Paris Saint-Germain are circling around the forward.
De Laurentiis admitted it will be difficult to see the Nigeria international leave the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium after four impressive seasons.
“Osimhen has a release clause. That’s a lot of money. Money is Napoli’s latest problem,” De Laurentiis said at the FT’s Football Business Summit:
“We have always made good purchases and will continue to do so in the future.
“The problem is only sentimental, because every time a player leaves it’s like saying goodbye to a child, but at the same time you’re happy even when he achieves success elsewhere.”
The Nigeria international has scored 11 goals in 15 league appearances for the reigning Serie A champions this season.
