If you are asked to pick the hottest striker in Europe this season, you cannot leave out Victor Osimen, the protagonist of Napoli’s storm.
Osimen showed off explosive attack power and led Napoli to Italy’s Serie A championship in 33 years. He is currently the top scorer with 23 goals. He also played a big role in the European Football Association (UEFA) Champions League (UCL).
Love calls from big clubs in Europe are flooding in for Osimen. Manchester United, Real Madrid and Chelsea are strongly linked to Osimen.
But can Osimen leave Naples this summer? In order for Osimen to transfer, he has to overcome a big wall. That wall is Cristiano Giuntoli, Napoli’s general manager.

One team was Napoli and the other was England’s Liverpool. In the end, the competition ended with Napoli’s victory thanks to Giuntoli’s tenacity.
“The Osimen contract is Giuntoli’s greatest masterpiece. Giuntoli knew that Liverpool were interested in Osimen in 2020, and manager Jurgen Klopp also took action. In this situation, Giuntoli’s general manager To convince Osimen, he went to the hotel where he was staying, and they talked for three days. After three days of persuasion, Osimen decided to go to Naples. Osimen was locked in a hotel for three days.”
He continued, “Director Giuntoli is a person full of energy. Director Giuntoli is a person who calls 100 times a day.”
