Hi Ed002 Sorry to disturb you I`m sure you are very busy but I`ve just seen an article stating Edu has contacted Napoli regarding Osimhen and was given encouragement from his agent. Have we indeed contacted Napoli or is this just click bait? I have searched but couldn`t find anything. No worries if too busy just thought I`d ask COYG.

{Ed002's Note - Victor Osimhen (S) Napoli made it clear to Chelsea who enquired in 2021 that even €100M would not buy the player then and buy now they would look to around double that. He will not move this summer although an offer could yet be made by Al-Hilal will offer him a chance in the Middle East. Interest of Manchester City went with Haaland signing last year but may return if he were to depart. Real Madrid interest is elsewhere and Manchester United have opted for another. Conte wanted him at Spurs as a Kane replacement but the new management has other ideas. Bayern Munich now have Kane and that removes their interest and he is too expensive for Milan regardless of investment coming in. This leaves PSG, Chelsea and Arsenal, and his “agent” is doing the rounds this month to try and get them to seek to agree a deal with Napoli for next summer and give him a large fee now. Chelsea are not interested in such a deal. I doubt the others would be stupid enough to commit such huge amounts of money in such a deal either.}
