Napoli and Osimhen involved in Mbappé transfer saga In football, transfer sagas have become a source of excitement and frustration for fans and clubs alike. The ongoing drama surrounding Victor Osimhen and Kylian Mbappé exemplifies how the movements of top international strikers can send shockwaves throughout the transfer market. The question on everyone’s lips is whether Osimhen will stay at Napoli or seek greener pastures elsewhere. This analysis by Soccernet.ng sheds light on the potential domino effect that French sensation, Mbappé, could trigger in the coming days. Paris Saint-Germain, the reigning Ligue 1 champions, have given Real Madrid-linked forward Mbappé a fifteen-day ultimatum: renew his contract or depart immediately. This ultimatum has generated ripples of anticipation across the footballing world While the drama unfolds in Paris, another intriguing situation brews in Naples between Napoli and Osimhen. After smashing numerous goal records to propel Napoli to their first Scudetto title in 33 years, the Super Eagles striker has become the target of Europe’s wealthiest clubs, including Chelsea, Manchester United, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, and, of course, PSG. Napoli’s president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, fully comprehends the significance of retaining Osimhen. The Italian business mogul recognises that the Nigerian’s prolific goal-scoring abilities are key to Napoli’s ambitions in the UEFA Champions League. Osimhen’s remarkable performance last season, netting five goals in Europe’s elite competition and propelling Napoli to an unprecedented quarterfinal finish, only strengthens his value. Consequently, Napoli have boldly rejected PSG’s initial €100 million offer for Osimhen, instead placing an astronomical price tag of €180 million on his head. Such an exorbitant sum may dissuade many clubs from pursuing the Nigerian, leading to a likely scenario where Osimhen signs a two-year contract extension with Napoli and spearheads the club’s charge to retain the Scudetto title next season. However, the real intrigue lies in the possibility of Mbappé’s departure. The former Monaco forward has expressed his desire to leave, with Real Madrid his preferred destination. Should Mbappé bid farewell to the Parc des Princes, PSG’s wealthy Qatari owners would undoubtedly flex their financial muscles to secure Osimhen as a worthy replacement. This fascinating scenario vividly exemplifies the domino effect in action, where one high-profile transfer sets off a chain reaction of negotiations and astronomical transfer fees. The allure of such a scenario is impossible to ignore. PSG, bolstered by their affluent owners, can wield immense financial resources to reshape their squad at will. If Mbappé’s potential departure materialises, it would only enhance PSG’s economic might, affording them the necessary leverage to pursue Osimhen at any cost. The movements of Osimhen and Mbappé have the potential to set the tone for the entire transfer market, influencing the valuations and expectations of other players. It raises intriguing questions: how much would Tottenham Hotspur demand to sanction the departure of Harry Kane? What about Inter’s asking price for Lautaro Martinez or Juventus’ stance on Dusan Vlahovic? In just fifteen days, we may find answers to many of these questions as Mbappé fulfills his promise to reject a contract extension, potentially triggering his departure from PSG. Subsequent events will undoubtedly shape the rest of the summer transfer window and the fate of several star players. |

Gift Orban came of the bench to score a free-kick and a lob for Gent in pre-season (his third). He is number one priority for UCL side LENS when they sell Openda. Real Sociedad have rejected an offer to permanently sign Sorloth, top scorer last season, but was on loan. They have strong belief in Umar Sadiq. Onuachu has interest from Germany and Saudi Arabia, prefers to remain in England but doesn't feel wanted in Southampton. Akor Adams scored two today in Norway. 6 Likes |

Samueltemi337: Hmm. I just hope this doesn't turn into a "see finish" situation next season as many of Napoli's top talent that were supporting Osimhen may be leaving in this window. It's better to let Victor leave with his reputation as a Napoli legend intact. |
