TRANSFERS – The Team announces in its edition of the day that Victor Osimhen, the LOSC striker, will join Napoli against a check for 81 million euros. A year after Nicolas Pépé’s departure from Arsenal for 80 million euros, the LOSC would sign a new record for the departure of a Ligue 1 player abroad.
He only needed one season, truncated, and 18 goals to set a new record. Unless there is a last minute twist, unless there is a problem with the medical visit, Victor Osimhen will,
according to information from L’Equipe, commit this week with Naples and establish a new transfer record for a Ligue 1 player sold abroad 81 million euros.

10 HOURS AGO—
A spectacular amount as the Coronavirus crisis shakes the economy of European football. But Napoli decided to bet very big on the LOSC striker. Gennaro Gattuso, his coach, is even ready to lower his salary to attract the Nigerian. That is to say that the Italian club absolutely wants to recover the player.

It is precisely this enthusiasm shown by the Neapolitans that convinced Osimhen to engage with them rather than with the many clubs that courted him (Inter, Liverpool, AC Milan, Tottenham). At 21, he chose an intermediate club which allows him to grow but not too quickly. Naples, which had already sold for 51 million euros, established the biggest bet in its history, far ahead of the 39 million spend for Gonzalo Higuain from Real Madrid in the summer of 2013.
