Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis is reportedly willing to give Paris Saint-Germain a marginal discount on star striker Victor Osimhen.
The Partenopei have been waiting to sell the Nigerian striker this summer to allow them to bring in reinforcements for Antonio Conte’s new project, but for now no club has offered to match his €130m release clause, delaying the signing of Chelsea outcast Romelu Lukaku.
Napoli are keen to resolve the issue soon, especially after making it clear that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia won’t be sold, and will bring in Lukaku as soon as Osimhen in sold. The striker has reportedly agreed to sign a five-year deal with PSG worth circa €14m net per season.
Osimhen discount for PSG
Page nine of today’s Corriere dello Sport details how Napoli president De Laurentiis is willing to offer a minor discount on Osimhen’s €130m release clause in order to facilitate a deal with PSG, keen to cash in on the striker soon.
In recent days, the Nigerian forward’s agent Roberto Calenda flew to the French capital to try and help a deal progress, and the club’s directors are hard at work trying to find common ground from their Castel di Sangro training retreat.
