The question from the heading? A tricky one, but we’ll try to break it down… So, the Nigerian’s representatives demanded more time from Aurelio De Laurentiis to find a club willing to activate the release clause of 120 million euros for European and 130 million for Saudi sides. Additionally, the deal was that Victor Osimhen should be part of Napoli’s squad during the second part of the pre-season period, starting today.🚨 Victor #Osimhen has agreed on personal terms with PSG! 🇳🇬🔴🔵 However, his signing hinges on the sale of either Gonçalo Ramos or Randal Kolo Muani. Luis Campos has told both players he’s counting on them for the next season. 🤔⚽️ #PSG #Napoli #Transfers #ForzaNapoli #Ligue1 pic.twitter.com/jZeoeAfIVX— Napoli Time (@napoli_time) July 24, 2024 The time they got was obviously insufficient, so the 25-year-old’s agents asked Napoli’s President for a few more days. All that happened because Paris Saint-Germain want to sell Randal Kolo-Muani and/or Goncalo Ramos before purchasing the Nigerian forward. The French and the Portuguese were paid around 150 million euros combined, and now their prices are lower by approximately a third. Hence, their fees are not the problem – it’s their salaries, too high for most clubs.Bayern offer 55, PSG follow and raise to 60 million!PSG manager Luis Enrique allegedly fancies only Osimhen, who fits his plans and ideas perfectly. On the other hand, the club’s owner wants to avoid throwing money down the drain anymore and hence intends to complete the sellings mentioned above first. An ace up the Saints’ sleeve could be their Sporting Director Luis Campos, who discovered Osimhen at Lille and could persuade the player to join at all costs, consequently making De Laurentiis accept “only” 90 million euros PSG offer. Given that the Neapolitans haven’t got what they want from the French, they turned to the Saudis, who are definitely capable of meeting Osimhen’s release clause. Nevertheless, the player doesn’t want to move to Saudi Arabia.##NAJAVA_MECA_8228486##Finally, Napoli coach Antonio Conte provided the finishing touch in this incredible script of our soap opera. Namely, he requested a deadline from De Laurentiis by which the situation around Osimhen and, subsequently, Romelu Lukaku – who is supposed to replace the Nigerian – will be resolved, putting additional pressure on the club’s president.
