According to Italian sports daily Tuttosport, via Tutto Napoli, the Naples based team are not going back on their €100 million price tag and will be willing to sell if the valuation is met.
The 23-year-old has enjoyed a campaign filled with mixed feelings so far. He started the season where he left off, scoring two goals and assisting one in five league games before a five-week injury layoff.
Following his return from Injury, Osimhen has scored crucial goals for Napoli to aid their title charge this term.
He has found the back of the net three times in three games since making his return against Ajax Amsterdam in the Champions League group stage game in October.
Osimhen is reportedly on the radar of Chelsea ahead of next season after impressing their talent spotters.
