Will Osimhen leave Napoli?

However, the star forward has come out to reveal that he has no interest in dumping Gli Azzurri.

Speaking recently on his future with the club, the Super Eagles star insisted that Napoli are some of the best clubs in the world and he intends to continue with them.

"The future is this moment. It's about winning something important in Italy," Osimhen stated via Napoli Magazine.

"It's hard to think of anything better than Napoli: they're one of the greatest teams in Europe, they're an extraordinary club, and it's normal that now I'm focused only on what we have to do this season," he added.

Osimhen signed for Napoli during the 2020/21 campaign from French top-tier team Lille.

Inzaghi rates Osimhen ahead of Benzema

Sports Brief reported that Italian legend Filippo Inzaghi says Osimhen is the best striker in world football at this stage.

The Reggina manager disclosed that the 23-year-old is more clinical in front of goal than Ballon d’Or winner Karim Benzema and Olivier Giroud.

Last season, the Nigerian international managed 27 Italian top-flight appearances, scoring 14 goals and providing two assists.
