Lille striker Victor Osimhen has moved closer to joining Napoli for a record transfer put at between 50 and 70 million Euros after much paper work was sorted.
A representative of the player said a formal announcement of the transfer could even be done today.
It is believed that the transfer is now even more imminent after the commissions of the various agents involved in the deal were agreed on.
Napoli bosses have been confident the transfer will go through even though coach Gennaro Gattuso has insisted he won’t talk about the striker because he is still a player of Lille.
Reports said Osimhen is fully convinced with the move now after he visited Naples last week and met with top club officials.
The Naples team plan a double of Osimhen and Gabriel Magalhaes, whose replacement Lille have already signed from Ajax Amsterdam for 10 million Euros.
Osimhen will be a direct replacement for Poland international Arkadiusz Milik, who is set to move most likely to the Premier League.
