Former AC Milan manager Fabio Capello has raised concerns about Napoli’s ability to find a suitable replacement for Victor Osimhen, who is expected to depart the Serie A champions in the upcoming transfer window. With top European clubs such as Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United, and Paris Saint-Germain showing interest in the Nigerian striker, Capello believes it will be a challenging task for Napoli to fill the void left by Osimhen.
In an interview with II Martino via Area Napoli, Capello expressed his doubts about the availability of players capable of stepping into Osimhen’s shoes. “How do you replace Osimhen next year? Million dollar question, there are no players around to replace Osimhen. You would have to have a crystal ball to find him,” he remarked.
Osimhen, who played a pivotal role in Napoli’s Scudetto triumph last season with 26 goals in 32 games, has continued his impressive form this season with 11 goals in 17 league appearances. His departure would undoubtedly leave a significant void in Napoli’s attacking lineup, making the search for a suitable replacement a daunting challenge for the club.
As Napoli prepares for Osimhen’s potential exit, the club faces the daunting task of finding a player who can replicate his goal-scoring prowess and impact on the team. With the competition for Osimhen’s signature heating up among Europe’s elite clubs, Napoli will need to act swiftly and decisively to secure a suitable replacement before the transfer window closes.
The departure of a player of Osimhen’s caliber is always a tough blow for any club, and Napoli will undoubtedly feel the effects of his absence. However, with the right recruitment strategy and a bit of luck, Napoli may just be able to find a player who can fill the void left by the talented Nigerian striker. Only time will tell if Napoli can successfully navigate this challenging transition period and continue their success in the Serie A.
