Liverpool Make Bold Move for Victor Osimhen as Napoli Demand Cash Plus Players

Premier League champions Liverpool have made an ambitious move to sign Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen from Napoli, but face a steep counter-demand from the Italian club in a high-profile transfer saga.

According to Valter De Maggio, via Sportskeeda, Liverpool has offered Napoli a player-plus-cash deal involving Uruguay forward Darwin Nunez and Italian winger Federico Chiesa in a bid to lure Osimhen to Anfield.

However, Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has responded by demanding an additional €20 million on top of the two players.

Chiesa, currently valued at €14 million, and Nunez, valued at €45 million, make up a combined value of €59 million. Adding Napoli’s cash demand brings the total valuation to €79 million, above Osimhen’s current €70 million market value on Transfermarkt.
