Napoli striker Mertens vows to help Osimhen adapt to Serie A

Napoli forward Dries Mertens has promised to help Victor Osimhen to adapt to Serie A when he completes his move from French side Lille.

The Nigeria international has undergone medical examinations with the Parthenopeans and it is believed a deal of around €81 million is close to being agreed.

The forward’s transfer was delayed after he changed his agent and expressed fears regarding racism in Italy but having received advice from Senegal international Kalidou Koulibaly, he then made up his mind to join the side.
