Chances of the Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, playing for Napoli in Serie A beyond next season are almost nil.
The attacker has been linked to
several big clubs including the Premier League trio of Arsenal, Chelsea and
Manchester United while some reports claim PSG are also interested.
Most African fans believe
joining the Red Devils will not be a good move for the striker, while some
insist PSG and arsenal are the best options if he wants to win trophies.
Osimhen reportedly penned €130m
(approx. £111m) release clause in his contract with the Italian giants, which a
potential buyer must be willing to pay.
Whether or not PSG or Arsenal
would be willing to splash out that much on the goal machine remains to be
seen.
One of the respondents on
goal.com, Umunna Bishop, said Manchester United are just living in the past
glory days and not good for a rising star like Osimhen. “Who are the players he
will play with, Anthony?” Bishop asked.
For Nworah Michael, If Arsenal
sign Osimhen, they’ll not only win the Premier League but the Champions League
as well.
Also on the Rest is Football
Podcast, Lineker was asked by Micah Richards who he would sign for if he was in
Osimhen’s position.
“I think I’d look at it and I’d
go, at the moment, Arsenal,” Lineker replied.
“I would say, Arsenal are
probably a centre-forward away from winning things. Chelsea are a
centre-forward away from becoming competitive again.
“Man Utd are a centre-forward away from improving, but they’ve still got a long way to go.
“If I were him, I would want to
go somewhere where you think you’re going to win things.”
Arsenal currently sit in third
place in the Premier League table – two points adrift from league leaders
Liverpool. Mikel Arteta’s side have shown that they have real quality in the
last two seasons.
For Victor Victor, the Napoli
star should go to PSG and win trophies and score lots of goals, insisting that
it is not a must to play in the Premier League.
