The reigning Italian champions in a bid to keep their star striker, Victor Osimhen<\/a>, offered a new two-year contract extension with a salary worth \u20ac10 million to the Nigerian.<\/p>\n

Osimhen, who has two years left on his contract at Napoli, had demanded an annual salary increase in order to extend his stay with the Italian champions, a deal which could see him become Nigeria's biggest earner<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For what it's worth, the club were keen to tie him down to a new deal amidst interests from some of Europe\u2019s top clubs, and a humongous offer from Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

It was gathered that the new proposed deal will include a release clause worth \u20ac150 million for a Saudi offer, and \u20ac100 million for a European offer for the Nigerian striker.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old was key to the Partenopei's first title in 33 years, scoring 26 goals in 32 games, to guide his side to a league triumph with games left to spare.<\/p>\n

The proposed Victor Osimhen salary however is north of what the club has ever offered to any player in their history; as such, plans had to be made in order to be able to fund their favourite forward wage bill, along with the other players in the squad.<\/p>\n

How Napoli intends to pay Victor Osimhen's proposed \u20ac10 million salary<\/h2>\n

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport as reported by Napoli Magazine on Thursday, 24 August, Napoli have drawn modalities on how to pay up Victor Osimhen's \u20ac10 million annual salary.<\/p>\n
