WHAT THEY SAID: Asked if Osimhen will move on this summer, De Laurentiis told Rai Sport show 'Cinque Minuti': "I will not sell Victor Osimhen this summer - no way!"
He also confirmed that the club are waiting on coach Luciano Spalletti to agree to a contract extension, adding: "He's a legend I've been chasing for at least ten years. I finally brought him to Naples after the Covid crisis and I hope to open a cycle with him, because he is a great leader. I exercised the clause for the renewal of the contract, now it's up to him to say the word... Luciano declared that he fell in love [with Naples], here he has become a hero and it is right that he enjoys it."
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Manchester United have been credited with interest in the Nigeria star, but it has been reported that Osimhen, 24, would rather join Bayern Munich.
