SPORTSerie A: Osimhen angry with Napoli owner over contract comments

Victor Osimhen, a forward for Napoli, is agitated after owner Aurelio De Laurentiis made remarks recently about his contract status. With less than two years left on his contract, Laurentiis discussed the prospect of selling Osimhen in an interview with Mediaset. Osimhen has a verbal agreement with the Serie A winners, but he has not yet committed to a new deal. Roberto Calenda, the forward’s agent, is reportedly outraged by De Laurentiis’ remark and is considering moving his client out of Naples, according to GIFN. The Serie A champions’ relationship with the Nigerian international deteriorated after the team uploaded TikTok videos last month. The 24-year-old hurt his thigh last weekend while on international duty and is now out of action.

In ten appearances for Rudi Garcia’s team this season in all competitions, he has six goals.
