Victor Osimhen 'signs new contract to stay at Napoli until 2026', with the £112m-rated striker - wanted by both Arsenal and Chelsea - committing his future to last season's Serie A winners

Victor Osimhen has signed a new contract to stay with Napoli until 2026, according to a new Italian report.

The £112m-rated striker has been a long-term target for both Arsenal and Chelsea, but has committed his future to Napoli, who won the 2022-23 Serie A title.

While the 24-year-old was originally contracted to the Italian champions until 2025, Sky Sports in Italy report that the deal has been extended, with a release clause reported to be in the region of €120-130 million (£104m-£113m).

The Nigerian international signed for Napoli in 2020, and has played 95 times for them, spearheading their charge to the Italian Serie A championship.
