Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, is set to receive a huge amount of money from Napoli if he scores against Udinese in the Italian Serie A.

The Nigerian international has struggled with injury for some part of the season but has managed to make 20 starts in the Italian league.

The former Lille striker has scored 14 goals and provided two assists in Serie A this season, but his numbers are not up to those of last season.

Osimhen is targeting scoring his 15th league goal of the season when they face Udinese later tonight, as it would be hugely beneficial for the Nigerian striker.

According to a report by Soccernet, as per Il Napoli, the Super Eagles forward will receive ₦187 million, which is equivalent to €125,000, if he hits the back of the net later today (May 6).

Osimhen has a clause in his deal with Napoli to that effect, and could lead Napoli to victory against the White and Blacks.

Napoli need a win against Udinese to qualify for either the Europa League or the UEFA Europa Conference League next season. The possibility of qualifying for the UEFA Champions League is out of reach for the Parthenopeans.

Agent predicts Osimhen’s next club

Sports Brief previously reported that Albanian agent, Serxhio Mezi, believes Osimhen will likely join PSG in the summer transfer window as EPL sides continue to prepare big offers.

The French giants are reportedly willing to pay €90 million, but Napoli wants the Nigerian striker's full release clause, billed at €130 million, to be paid out before a move occurs.

Napoli President, Aurelio De Laurentiis, previously labelled Osimhen a 'great player' and insisted the reigning Serie A champions would not be forced into selling the Nigerian ace.
