Victor Osimhen has requested a salary of €7m annually to sign a new deal with Napoli.
Napoli, who have already begun contract negotiations to extend Osimhen’s contract, are keen on include a €200 million release clause in the new deal, according to Get Italy Football News.
With 26 goals in 32 games in 2022/23, the Nigeria international helped the Partenopei win their first Serie A title in 33 years.
His outstanding form has prompted interest from PSG, Liverpool, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Bayern Munich.
“A solution for the issue could be that Napoli will go close to meeting the wage demand of about €7m and will add a release clause of around €200m in his (Osimhen’s) deal,” the report stated.
“Shared image rights could also bring the parties close. Work is already going on in the right direction for this, with both parties trying to close a deal as quickly as possible.”
