Napoli assures Conte of Osimhen’s €130m transfer cash

Napoli has been promised Antonio Conte a €230m transfer budget, which probably includes the €130m Napoli plan to get from the sale of Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen, according to Il Mattino.

Conte had demanded a clause that allows him to leave Napoli at the end of every season while Aurelio De Laurentiis will make €230m available for the summer transfer window.

Napoli is in advanced talks with Antonio Conte to become the new head coach. De Laurentiis said earlier this week that the next ten days would be decisive, but multiple reports claim the Italian tactician already has an agreement in principle over an €8m-a-year deal until 2027.

The latest report from Il Mattino claims Napoli will invest €60m gross in three years in the Italian tactician.

Conte has reportedly demanded a clause that will allow him to leave the club at the end of every season, but ADL would prefer to keep the clause in his favour and has the power to activate it each summer.

Conte’s staff will include Christian Stellini, the coach’s brother Gianluca and former Italian striker, Elvis Abbruscato who played under Conte at Arezzo.

Conte, a former Juventus and Inter coach, could also help De Laurentiis develop the club’s training facilities, which are far from the highest quality standards in Europe.
