Napoli star Victor Osimhen is reportedly unimpressed by club president Aurelio De Laurentiis’ recent statements regarding the contract renewal talks.
The Partenopei president, who is no stranger to controversy, recently hinted to the media that the Nigerian striker had changed his mind after agreeing to the terms of a new contract with the club, saying: “If after a handshake things change, that is disappointing”.

Osimhen has less than two years left on his contract with Napoli and a new deal is starting to look increasingly unlikely, especially after he was recently insulted on the club’s official TikTok page, an incident that sparked tension in the Campania capital.
As reported by Il Mattino via TMW, Osimhen and his agent Roberto Calenda do not appreciate De Laurentiis’ recent comments and no new date has been set to continue contract negotiations.
The Nigerian striker does not accept the president’s claims, feeling that an agreement was never reached in the first place.
