Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has firmly stated that the contract situation of Victor Osimhen is off the table for any debate. This declaration comes after a social media controversy involving Osimhen on TikTok. Despite the incident, Napoli successfully retained their star attackers Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia after clinching the long-awaited Scudetto last summer.
The speculation about Osimhen moving to the Premier League gained traction recently, fueled by the TikTok controversy. Napoli’s official TikTok account seemingly mocked Osimhen by posting a video of him missing a penalty, accompanied by a sarcastic voice-over: “Gimme penalty please.” In response, Osimhen’s agent threatened legal action, and Osimhen removed all references to Napoli from his Instagram page. Despite these events, Osimhen assured his commitment to Napoli, stating that he won’t allow anyone to come between him and the club he loves so deeply.
