Lille star Victor Osimhen has been handed a 10-day ultimatum to decide whether he wants the offer from Napoli or not.
The AFCON bronze medal winner has been one of the most sought after striker by big clubs in Europe including Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Real Madrid and FC Barcelona.
However, only the Serie A Napoli have been able to put money on the table, waiting for the Nigeria international’s signature to switch from Lille to Naples.
According to reports by Corriere dello Sport, the Naples outfit want an immediate response from the Super Eagles’ rave-of-the-moment 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.
Osimhen has been to the Italian city to meet with the club’s chiefs including Head Coach Gennaro Gattuso after his brilliant debut campaign at Lille where the 21-year old forward, scored 13 goals in 27 Ligue 1 games.
