Napoli striker Victor Osimhen is reportedly set to stay with the Italian club this summer, despite interest from the likes of Manchester United, Arsenal and Real Madrid.

The 23-year-old has been a key player for the Serie A title contenders this season, scoring 16 goals and registering five assists in 26 appearances across all competitions.

Osimhen is believed to be one of the most sought-after strikers in Europe, but TEAMtalk claims that the Nigeria international is unlikely to leave Napoli this summer.

The report adds that Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis intends to keep hold of Osimhen at all costs, and even bids in excess of £100m may not be enough to prise the striker away from Naples.

Last week, Osimhen's agent revealed that "Napoli are a precise choice for the striker's development" and claims that his client has "no problems" with staying at the club for the 2022-23 campaign.

Osimhen joined Napoli from Lille for around £60m in 2020 and he is under contract until June 2025.
