With Victor Osimhen expected to leave Napoli for €130m at the end of the season, the Partenopei have reportedly drawn up a five-man striker shortlist to replace the Nigerian star.
Osimhen confirmed in his latest interview with CBS that he has already made a decision about his future, suggesting that he will leave the Stadio Maradona in June despite signing a contract extension until 2026 only a few weeks ago.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Chelsea are among the most interested clubs in the Nigerian striker so the Blues are ready to pay his €130m clause at the end of the season.
More sources in Italy confirm that Osimhen has decided to leave the Partenopei at the end of the current campaign.
TMW adds that the defending Serie A champions have already prepared a five-man striker shortlist to replace the Nigerian star.
According to the report, Jonathan David (Lille), Victor Boniface (Bayer Leverkusen), Joshua Zirkzee (Bologna), Santiago Gimenez (Feyenoord) and Benjamin Sesko (RB Leipzig) are the five strikers monitored by the Partenopei.
None of them would cost more than €50m, so Napoli will certainly register a substantial capital gain, by selling Osimhen and signing any of these five players as his replacement.
