Chelsea will suffer a heavy loss as Napoli are close to signing Victor Osimhen to a new deal that might include a release clause of €130 million (£112 million/$141 million).

Napoli and Osimhen have reportedly signed a contract renewal deal in principle, according to Fabrizio Romano. The striker’s existing contract is set to expire at the conclusion of next season, but a new deal is in the works that will extend it to 2026 and most likely contain a release clause.

After signing with Napoli in 2020, Osimhen left Lille. The Serie A club might enjoy a substantial profit if his release clause is ever activated, given they paid a club-record €70m (£60m/$76m) plus €10m (£9m/$11m) in add-ons.The 24-year-old will likely make a big move at some point, but for now he just wants to keep scoring goals for Napoli. In light of Chelsea’s spending in the 2023 winter transfer window, a massive January offer from the club is certainly not out of the question.

Graham Potter meets with Jim Ratcliffe as Man Utd’s Erik ten Hag sacking plan comes to light

Reportedly, Sir Jim Ratcliffe spoke with Graham Potter, and the former Chelsea manager is Sir Jim’s top pick to succeed Erik ten Hag as United manager.

United were humiliatingly eliminated from the Champions League on Tuesday by Bayern Munich, 1-0, putting immense pressure on Ten Hag. With 12 losses out of 24 games this season, the Dutchman’s early departure from all European football is a huge setback for the team.

If United suffers а remаtch оf their 7-0 humiliаtiоn аt аnfield in Mаrch, United’s mаnаger Ten Hаg might be in dаnger оf lоsing his jоb аs they gо tо Liverpооl fоr Sundаy’s Premier Leаgue mаtch. His immediаte future is believed tо be secure, but his lоng-term emplоyment prоspects аre uncertаin due tо Rаtcliffe’s impending £1.3 billiоn trаnsаctiоn fоr а 25% stаke in the club.

Potter, who has been unemployed since Chelsea fired him in April, reportedly met with Ratcliffe, according to The Sun. The former Swansea and Brighton coach is someone that Ratcliffe greatly admires; in the past, he had expressed interest in hiring him to lead Nice.

Since Todd Boehly let Potter go at Stamford Bridge, he has been connected with a number of posts; nevertheless, he is still open after turning down the opportunity to replace Alex Neil at Stoke this week. In his seven months as Chelsea manager, the 48-year-old won just twelve of thirty-one games. His five-year contract was cut short after just seven months.

If Manchester United’s dismal record persist at Old Trafford, he is far from the only manager said to be in the running to replace Ten Hag. Along with Zinedine Zidane and Roberto De Zerbi, United officials also admire Julen Lopetegui, the former manager of Wolves. Lopetegui’s background in the Premier League and Europe makes him a potential candidate.The hiring of Ten Hag in April 2022 was contingent upon his assumption of a long-term project. He has a contract that runs until June 2025, but he is currently going through a tough patch since he is halfway through his deal.
