Osimhen Calls Napoli’s ‘Ultimatum Bluff’, Could Sign For AC Milan

AC Milan are now the latest club in the race to sign Lille striker, Victor Osimhen, with Napoli emerging strong contenders to sign the Super Eagles striker.

According to reports in Italy, the Rossoneri are preparing a proposal for the Nigerian International valued at 60 million Euros.

The 21-year-old striker was at Napoli recently and met with coach Gennaro Gattuso and president, Aurelio De Laurentiis in a bid to seal a move to the club.

Recall that the AFCON bronze medal winner was handed a 10-day ultimatum to decide whether he wants the offer from Napoli or not.

Corriere dello Sport had reported that the Naples outfit wanted an immediate response from the Super Eagles star to avoid a repeat of their failed move for Nicolas Pepe last summer and also have time to find an alternative in the event of Osimhen’s rejection of their bid.
