That is such a huge price to ask for. He must have done that to sell him at a price not less than 150 million as you’ve predicted. This will also drive away the interest of some top clubs. I am sure he will consider this offer but not to a much reduced amount less than the 150 million. Although any club that is so much interested to sign him, 150 million won’t be an issue for them to buy him if they are fully prepared for it.
A fantastic price and I'm sure no team will be able to waste a large amount of money on a player, even Osimhen performance this season is not as impressive as last season so big teams will think as best as possible to recruit him. For Napoli, of course they set a higher price to be able to keep Osimhen from leaving to another team. He is still an important part of the Napoli squad this season even though his performance is not very good, but he can cause a lot of problems for the opposing defense.

Well, Chelsea is very interested in recruiting Osimhen, they even tried it in the last summer transfer window but it didn't work because Napoli asking price was quite high. Well, this is just speculation that is developing and I am sure that Napoli will try their best if they are really looking for a profit from selling Osimhen.

Chelsea will not back down easily due to the high cost placed on Osimehn. If they can sell for at least 150 million, Chelsea will be willing to pay that amount without hesitation because it is a reasonable price to pay to have Osimehn in the squad. The deal could be extended if Napoli seeks a much higher price than 200 million for this player and this ends up being a deal that does not end as soon as expected. This player's price is simply to have a good chance of having a good bargaining margin and settling for their intended price when selling him. Napoli is a fantastic team, but Osimehm should leave the club now if he needs to explore and try out new leagues to boost his football career globally.

This summer their president said it wants 400 mil for Osimhen.

I doubt he will leave for less than 150.
Really it's a fantastic figure that the club wants, but recently Osimhen has agreed to a new contract that will soon be completed at the beginning of 2024 in addition to Victor Osimhen will experience a fairly high salary increase, even the media said he had the highest salary in the history of the Napoli club.

This means Chelsea will not have the opportunity to buy Osimhen if he extends his contract until 2026, the clause value is €130M according to sky sport but it could be even higher.

It seems that Napoli are locking Osimhen up to prevent him from leaving for another club.

that makes sense since osimhen has been rumored to extend his contract with napoli soon but it was a setback for him. He was choosing to stay instead of getting more experience in another club. I would not be surprised to see that how their president is changing his price again but it seems like that there will be a price to be inserted in new release clause of him which will be around 100m in the new contract. Let's see how it will be going on. Osimhen was not willing to make other team becomes so difficult to get him.

No doubt that if its president was doing crazy thing like so many times napoli president being very inconsistent with the price of osimhen. It was saying 150 then 250 and 300 or even a half of billions but it was going back again to the 200.
The inconsistentcy owned by its president has proven that if the club is not yet ready to losing osimhen from the club. Napoli was osimhen centric, once osimhen shows bad performance then napoli was also doing it too.

Let's see how many times napoli president will be changing osimhen price again.

I feel surprised that Victor Osimhen has secured a new contract with the club for him to stay until 2026 remembering an uncomfort situation that he experienced at Napoli a while ago. But It's great news for Napoli fans and football enthusiasts. The fact that Napoli is willing to make him one of the highest earners in the club's history reflects the recognition of his talent and contributions. This contract extension not only provides stability but also sends a positive message to both the player and the fans about the club's commitment to future success.

The timing of this announcement, especially after six months since Napoli won Serie A, might indeed be related to the upcoming January transfer window. It's understandable that a club make such decision to secure key players, especially when there's potential offers from other clubs. Osimhen's stellar performances may have attracted interest, pushing Napoli to act swiftly to ensure his continued commitment to the team.
Regardless of the loopholes Osimhen faced for a few weeks with Napoli, he still found so much belief in them and he'sore or less the fans' favorite too. So the news of his contract extension was definitely soothing to the team and fans too. Now it's certain that they'd keep seeing and benefiting from his unique style of football. He's being a key man at the Italian side and it was although very much unlikely for them to let him slip off their arm. He's just got more impacts to make.

 To him it feels like a good decision he's made no doubt.  With the new boss and his new strategies he's got for the team, it'd definitely pace ways for the forward man. Congratulations to him on his recent CAF award and it's definitely an encouragement for greater heights achievements, there are more to come if he continues to work hard.

If Osimehn is offered a lot of money, Napoli may feel like the yare in trouble as well. Why? I mean they are the ones offering that contract, so why would they be in trouble after offering the contract themselves? Well simply put they do not want to lose him for free and that means the yare going to try to their best to sign him, even if it means they will overpay him.

After getting his contract done, then it means it's time for them to end up with a sale as well, because they can't afford to keep him with a high salary if it's too high, and they will not want to lose him for free neither, which means they will sign him for an amount they can't afford and then try to sell him for a lot of money whenever they can to get rid of his salary while still making some money.

That’s a smart move by them. The news came as a shock to me and I felt they should be more to this just happening like that without any prior signs of it happening. No club will want to lose a great player like Osimehn to free transfer, they will do everything possible to get some good percentage from his sale. Without this contract renewal, they won’t get the chance to sell him for an higher price. If they’ve agrees to sign him for a good price, they should do that and not play trick with people, if they are caught that it was only done because of the higher fees they will want to pay him and not for a true contract extension, the club and players will be in big trouble by FIFA. He will be having a new release clause which can confirm what we think the team has planned for this unforeseen event that is about to take place.

It was not true. Osimhen will not leave from the club. You can read this news first https://www.goal.com/en/lists/victor-osimhen-chelsea-napoli-transfer-new-contract/bltb068810c523b028e

Osimhen is likely extending his contract with napoli instead of leaving to other club. It's a setback for him caused by he will always be playing for napoli without even think to get new experience to improve his skill.

This is the main problem owned by osimhen as he was lacking in exploring his potential to work under various coaches. forgot a rumor about him to go to the barcelona caused by it was fake rumor.


Yes the African player of the year Victor Osimhen is ready to sign a contract extension with the club till 2026 with a club breaking wages for him. Although I wanted him to explore other options but if he feels good Napoli then i wish him well, a young player like that needs a place he cherish to been able to develop his game. Even if Osimhen ends his career playing the remaining games as Napoli player I wouldn’t see anything bad there, they have been great players that didn’t change team and they are regarded as club legends, but layers like Giggs, Totti and Paul scholes to mention a few went on to stay in the same team for their entire career and they went onto be club legends

By principle, both parties already made a deal. They are only waiting for the contract to be made and then signed. Thus it appears to be that he will remain at Napoli because once the agreement becomes official the transfer fee will turn out to be pricey.

Chelsea is the leading club keen on taking Osimhen. The agreement news is a significant blow for Chelsea because Osimhen is one of the best strikers that anyone could hope to find in the transfer market right now. The club can either push ahead and gamble spending a hundred million in taking Osimhenand or pick another striker in the market.

Yeh but his presitent is a clown.

Years ago he lost like 200 mil from missing the sales of Cavani and Koulibaly.

I'm not surprised if he will do the same here.

He can play anywhere including Barcelona but the problem is can Barcelona sign Osimhen?
Seeing the situation that is happening now, I'm not even sure Barcelona can do that and spend more than 100 million just for a player unless with some syaeat such as installments or free transfer players that they have to think again because the salary burden that will be faced will be very large which we know that now they are still hampered by FFP because the cash flow is too over.

It does not mean to demean Barcelona's current condition but reflecting on the previous Raphinha case where Barcelona had problems with Leeds which even only a few months later the problem was resolved due to Barcelona's difficulty paying Raphinha in full this is the real answer that Barcelona's condition from a financial point of view is very difficult and now linking Osimhen with Barcelona in conditions like this could be a boomerang too even though the FFP threat is not too concerned because of some of the advantages Barcelona has but still they must also realize that their finances are still bad to bring Osimhen to Camp Nou.
The financial situation of Barcelona at the moment doesn't require an irrational spending. It requires careful consideration and study too. Barcelona needs to get out of the situation fast and so they wouldn't dare trade their chances. They've got eyes on some players who are or will also be willing to join them but they just can't squeeze out that funds because it'll lead to another jeopardy.

 It's so sad that for the mean time, they'll be left with just free transfer options or low budgeted players. Adding a high rated player in the team would also mean a careful study of his salary incentives and finding a plan that would befit this player and I don't think any player of that stance, would want his salary structure reviewed. The best thing for Barcelona is just endurance whilst finding quick means out of this situation so they'd be back to acquiring the best guys in the game. I'm sure anyway that that's definitely what will be done immediately they're out of this phase.

I think the fear is also due to the fact that they have bought very expensive players over the last few years, but they have not been able to play and they have effectively just wasted money. So I think it's best to buy inexpensive players who have good potential rather than wasting huge sums of money.

Joao Felix performance does seem unsatisfactory, he may not be the kind of striker who score a lot of goals for his clubs, while Xavi Hernandez need a striker who has more quality than that and what is certain is that Barcelona will think carefully if they want to recruit him, which is not worth the price of €80 million for recruiting a striker like Joao Felix is a very expensive price,~
Indeed. If we consider the number of goals or assist made by Felix, he doesn't seem already contributing a lot for Barcelona. Xavi must think again to spend €80 million for signing Felix. I agree with you, €80 million seems too expensive for signing Felix. Moreover, Felix isn't a typical player who can make many goals in every season. Xavi needs another player who can guarantee many goals, Felix still isn't the best option for this matter.

I thinks Barcelona will choose another option in the transfer market. It look like Barcelona won't spending much money to recruited players considering his dire financial condition.
Well, you're right. Xavi seems prefer to sign a player like Osimhen, L. Martinez, or Mbappe if they need to spend huge amount of money. €80 million isn't a small amount of money, Barcelona must have many options with that money. Sure, Barcelona probably gets a better player with €80 million. So, it is unlikely to sign Felix if Atletico Madrid sets €80 million for the price.

Barcelona has been targeting some players but it will not osimhen. Osimhen is also having very expensive price which can't be bought by barcelona.

Barcelona will be facing another trouble due to the financial trouble.

Osimhen going to Barcelona will just be an issue that won't happen forever, in fact I'm looking for continuation of the news or conversation between Man Utd and Napoli regarding Osimhen, soon the transfer market will start, won't it, there will be many big teams hunting for players, including Man Utd. So, Osimhen is the best candidate for Man Utd, especially since Man Utd is currently experiencing a crisis in the front line. If Man Utd is successful in getting Osimhen, their front line will be greatly helped.

Chelsea have enough money to buy new players including Osimhen but the real problem is the Napoli president who already refused to sell the player last summer transfer window in a price under €200k if I am not mistaken..
Osimhen actual value is €120k and I believe it is exaggerated. His real value shouldn't pass €75k this season since he isn't playing as he used to be nor Napoli performing good as they used to do. Since there is some tension between him and Napoli's staff previously then it might be an opportunity for Napoli to generate enough money to buy 3 or even 4 players to consolidate the team and improve their ranking in the Serie A but also in European competitions..

Victor Osimhen seems to want to take every chance to leave Napoli. I think it is clear that he is unhappy playing there. Last season he was one of the best strikers together with Haaland. This season he is not so good compared to last season but we know he has a big potential. I think he could be a good signing for Chelsea or Manchester United. Both teams need a player like Osimhen. Osimhen also needs a new challenge.
I think Osimhen could even play for Barca instead of Lewandowski, who is out of form. Of course, he has said before that his dream is the Premier League. Therefore, Chelsea or Manchester United can be considered as teams where he can be more successful. I think he will leave Napoli at the end of the year.

To be honest goal is not a good source of football news and rumours. Osmihen with what happened with Napoli near the start of season makes it really doubtful to say if he is really happy at Napoli. Osmihen has lot of potential and there are lot of clubs interested in him so I think at right bid Napoli might sell him or even if they are not Osmihen might not extend his contract with Napoli. There is Chelsea, Barcelona and Madrid also reported to be interested in him. Not sure how much truth that news hold but it is for certain that Osmihen has grabbed attention a lot last year. It's just if Osmihen wants to make move away or not and in my opinion he is feeling discontent at Napoli right now.
Real Madrid needs a better striker than Joselu. Osimhen is better than him, but they will also make attempts for Mbappe. It might be smarter to use the budget allocated for Osimhen's transfer to Mbappe's transfer. In my opinion, Chelsea is the strongest possibility for Osimhen. I'm sure he will do whatever he can in the Premier League.

Crap! My Prediction for Victor Oshime to leave for Chelsea would be jinxed if this news comes to conclusion. If that's what he wants, then he can have it his way,but staying longer and having a contract extension is not wise. He needs to leave, I'm not even sure they'll qualify for the Champions League Football next season if this level of football they play right now is not upped. The players right now aren't even being supportive in the slightest way, they barely create enough goal scoring chances for him to score.

Barcelona can not be able to get Victor Oshime, they don't need him and they can't afford to get him signed up even if his strength and qualities are needed within the club. Now I feel like, Victor Oshime be doing staying a year further for money! Ohh shirt!

Spurs are indeed in a very bad condition and they have almost no other player options to finish the rest of this season. The latest news says that Spurs coach Ange Postecoglou will return to look for a new central defender in January and this is something that Spurs must do if they want to immediately repair the existing gaps. Certainly coach Ange Postecoglou doesn't want his squad to be in trouble before the desired target is achieved this season, especially since being able to bring Spurs to the Champions League is their priority.

Even though there are no rumors regarding the central defender Spurs are targeting, I think they have to prepare everything because competition for players is very tight every time the transfer window opens. If Spurs don't want to miss out on any of their targets then they must be prepared with a bigger budget to convince the players they are targeting later.

Osimhen isn't going anywhere, he's already a done product of Napoli as they announced he is going to stay with new contract, there is an extension of his stay fill 2026 and he is going to have his salary revise and increased to one the best highest earner since the club has been in existence. I think he deserves it and they took it longer than they should have announced it, it's been more than 6 month since they won the Seria A trophy until now they want to make some adjustments for him, and I think it's because the January transfer period is here and offers will come from other clubs that's why they raised the bar quickly.

Visible or not Chelsea desperately needs a striker and not just any striker a world class striker, the whole club is aware of this already and they are considering a lot of strikers though but the Nigerian forward will definitely suit Chelsea better. If Osimhen really wants to leave and Chelsea has enough money to buy him then it will be a done deal even though it will not be easy as it seems.

I Just saw an update from Fabrizio Romano stating that Victor Osimehn is about to be handed a new contract which will make him one of the highest earning players in the history of the team and new deal will be valid till 2026. This is sad news for Chelsea if Osimhen signs this contract because it will be even more difficult to sign him to Chelsea.

I get your point about Chelsea needing a good striker. Victor Osimhen seems like a great fit for the club, and I've been monitoring the situation. The newest news from Fabrizio Romano regarding Osimhen possibly signing a new contract with Napoli makes Chelsea's situation difficult. Osimhen's career goals matter as well as money. Why would he leave Italy if he's happy and earning well?

However, Chelsea's financial rules must be considered. Chelsea must navigate these rules even if Osimhen is for sale. Though they have the money, its not just about spending it. Strategic planning and avoiding financial fair play issues are key. Trying to get a top-tier signing while accepting the hurdles is a rollercoaster for fans.
That's right, Chelsea must pay more attention to FFP rules so that they don't experience sanctions in the future. Osimhen is indeed a quality striker, and Chelsea really needs a striker like Osimhen in the front line, Jackson and Broja cannot be the main solution regarding Chelsea goal productivity this season. Nkunku also hasn't made his debut yet, even though he is reportedly ready to play in the near future.

If Chelsea are interested in Osimhen, then someone must be sacrificed, among them Nkunku, Jackson or Broja. And one of them has to leave, for the sake of more playing time, because it is clear that Osimhen will be the main priority on the front lines. However, we will see developments in the January transfer window, even though Osimhen has extended his contract, it is still possible that he will leave Napoli sooner or later.

Yes I also feel the same way because to me he seems unsettled now at Napoli. His relationship with other teammates has also reported to have detoriated so it can be said that there are high chances of him moving near the contract end or the contract end from Napoli. There are lot of clubs interested in him so he will really find a good club soon if he leaves.

If Osimehn is offered a lot of money, Napoli may feel like the yare in trouble as well. Why? I mean they are the ones offering that contract, so why would they be in trouble after offering the contract themselves? Well simply put they do not want to lose him for free and that means the yare going to try to their best to sign him, even if it means they will overpay him.
