Victor Osimhen is still in the wilderness at Italian Serie A side Napoli hence missed the opening day humiliation they suffered in the hands of Verona, OwnGoalNigeria.com.
The Nigerian has been kept out of the team by Antonio Conte since making it clear that he wants out of the team as agreed with the club, when he signed a new deal in December.
Conte kept him out of all of their pre season games and did the same today in their opening game of the season. They crashed to a humiliating 3-0 loss with a brace from Daniel Mosquera and Dailon Livramento helping Verona to the win.
Osimhen’s departure is still on the cards, but interested teams are shying away from paying the €130m release clause in his contract. PSG and Chelsea are the two teams who are strongly linked with his signing.
A clear picture on his future is expected to be known in the coming days with the transfer window having like two more weeks to run.
