The 24-year-old forward became one of the Partenopei’s top earners in history after he penned a one-year contract extension last week, but uncertainties still surround his future at the club.

Canovi is of the opinion that Osimhen’s contract extension was to increase the value of the Nigerian forward, as he expects Napoli to cash in on him when the right offer comes.
