Despite rumours suggesting Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen’s imminent departure from Napoli, his transfer situation might not be resolved until the summer.
Renowned football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano on Thursday, have updates on the Nigeria international.
According to him, any deal involving Osimhen leaving Napoli is likely to happen later in the summer.
“I think this is a situation we have to follow in July/August, rather than this week, even if there have been some rumours about his asking price changing,” he said.
