Napoli won't let Victor Osimhen leave in January, despite interest from Chelsea.
Victor Osimhen has had yet another successful season in Serie A, and it has attracted the attention of the likes of Chelsea and Liverpool. Osimhen has scored six goals in eight Serie A matches this season before picking up a muscle injury which will keep him out for a month.

Napoli sporting director Mauro Meluso has ruled out any move for the 24-year-old Nigerian in the January window, despite his contract expiring in 2025. Meluso stated that there is no way Osimhen will leave in January and that the squad is very good and relaxed.

However, Napoli are keen to sign him up to a new deal and Meluso has confirmed that there will be a meeting between the President and Osimhen’s entourage in the next few weeks. Osimhen has expressed his contentment at Napoli, claiming that Serie A is one of the most difficult leagues to play in both tactically and physically.

Although there are fears that Osimhen's mood has changed, it seems as though the Nigerian will remain at Napoli until at least the end of the season. With the Premier League clubs still interested in Osimhen, the future remains uncertain but it appears that Napoli are ready to fight for the prolific striker.
