Football transfer insider, Ben Jacobs has revealed that one of the few options for Victor Oshimen could be to remain at Napoli disappointed and unhappy this season.
This is following the revelation that Chelsea are the only side showing interest in signing the Nigerian attacker at the moment.
Chelsea boss, Enzo Maresca is expected to push for a new No. 9 before the end of the transfer window and Osimhen is reportedly his preferred choice.
Osimhen signed a new contract with the Italian last December but has agreed with the club to leave this summer.
The player reportedly has a €130m release clause in his contract which the Serie A side expect to be exercised to let him go.
Speaking on the London is Blue podcast, Jacobs said that Chelsea are the only club actively in the race for Osimhen right now.
“Things are getting a little bit tense at the moment, because, believe it or not, Chelsea are the only active suitors at the moment,” he said.
“We should view it separately as something that could happen late in the window,” said Jacobs.
“At that point Osimhen will be under pressure to make a decision, and if the decision is to stay at Napoli and be unhappy and disappointed, if the only option is a Chelsea loan then Osimhen’s perspective on a temporary move might change.”
Recent reports have suggested that Arsenal also have their eyes on the Nigerian striker this summer.
