Every day could be the right one for Victor Osimhen‘s signature on the new contract that will bind him to Napoli until 2026.
The terms have already been outlined in detail: the expiration date shifts from 2025 to 2026, the salary will be raised from 4.5 million to 10 million with bonuses, a single release clause (valid for both European and Arab clubs) of 150 million will be included.
Additionally, the club will allow the Nigerian to retain the proceeds from the next technical sponsorship contract that he is expected to negotiate by the end of the calendar year. In short, all that remains is for the documents to be signed and submitted.
