Italian giants Napoli are reportedly willing to extend Nigerian striker, Victor Osimhen’s five-year-deal for a further year and also improve his wage to five million Euros. It was gathered that the 22-year-old forward will put pen to paper and now earn higher salary, but a very high clause is also expected to be etched in the contract. Last summer, Napoli completed the transfer agreement for the youngster for fee plus an array of potential bonuses that took the deal up to €50million (about N23billion).
Super Eagles Striker Victor Osimhen who joined Italian giants Napoli scored 10 Serie A goals at the just concluded season helping them to finish fifth Despite a relatively poor start to the season, the Super Eagles striker impressed in the latter stages and now he is being offered contract extension – Osimhen’s initial deal with the Napoli side was billed to lapse in 2025, now theyare considering offering the Nigerian a further one-year deal.
The forward, who had spent just 12 months with Napoli, joins on a 5-year contract, with the option to extend that deal by a further sixth year. Despite having a poor start to his maiden Serie A season, Osimhen scored 10 league goals in 24 matches as he looked to find his form at the latter stages of the campaign. And that seemed to have prompted Napoli to make a move to tie him down for a further year according to reports filtering in from Italy.
