Reason Why Napoli Rejected Chelsea’s Swap Deal For Victor Osimhen Revealed—The Genius Media Nigeria reports that, according to reports from Napoli Magazine, Italian Serie A champions Napoli have rejected Chelsea’s proposal to include out-of-favor Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku, along with cash, in a deal for Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen.
The English club is exploring alternative methods to avoid triggering Osimhen’s release clause, which ranges from €110 million to €130 million.
“As reported by Il Mattino, Chelsea are one of the teams most interested in Victor Osimhen, Napoli striker, for next season,” the website wrote. “The English club would like to include a quid pro quo in the negotiation to lower the price of the price, but the Azzurri are not interested in Romelu Lukaku, so the Blues would have thought of including Armando Broja who had already been linked to the Azzurri team in the past.”
While Chelsea explores different avenues, Dario Canovi, the representative of Thiago Motta, claims that Osimhen has instructed his agent, Roberto Calenda, to initiate preparations for a potential move to Paris Saint-Germain.
“Victor Osimhen has scored 14 goals and provided four assists in 26 games in all competitions so far this season.”
