Super Eagles and SSC Napoli striker Victor Osimhen is one of the most wanted forwards in Europe and his release clause has been revealed.
The astronomical release fee Serie A champions SSC Napoli would demand for star striker Victor Osimhen has been revealed, amid mounting interest from Premier League giants.
Pulse Sports Nigeria reports that Super Eagles striker Osimhen is a wanted man, with some of Europe’s elite clubs in a battle for his signature led by London rivals Arsenal and Chelsea.
Arsenal and Chelsea know Osimhen’s price
Osimhen penned a new Napoli contract in December that reportedly includes an incredible minimum £104million exit clause, according to a report from Daily Mail.
That nine-figure sum could deter all but Europe’s superclubs from pursuing the Nigerian hitman.
But both Arsenal and Chelsea have been linked with the 25-year-old striker and could consider triggering Osimhen’s mega-money release as they aim to solve their striker issues.
Osimhen has been in scintillating form since returning from AFCON duty, netting five goals in just three matches.
That includes a hat-trick in last night’s demolition of Sassuolo which underlined the Super Eagles striker’s world-class ability as reported by Pulse Sports.
Now back firing on all cylinders, Osimhen’s suitors know it would take a record-breaking £100m+ bid to sign him this summer.
The striker was instrumental as Napoli ended their 33-year Scudetto drought last term, scoring 26 Serie A goals.
With his contract running until 2025, the Partenopei are in a strong position to demand top dollar for their prized asset.
Arsenal and Chelsea have been put on red alert, but landing Osimhen would require shattering their transfer records.
