Napoli manager Antonio Conte has confirmed that he will not stand in the way of Victor Osimhen's departure from the club this summer, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

Osimhen, who has a €130 million release clause in his contract, is expected to leave Napoli, with Paris Saint-Germain emerging as a potential destination.

The 25 year-old for almost a week have been out due to a suspect muscular injury which saw him missed out on the club’s friendly on Wednesday.

Conte revealed that an agreement had already been reached regarding Osimhen's exit, stating: "It was already clear, the pact about Osimhen's exit. The timing is exactly as we expected; there will be no issues."

The Napoli manager is reportedly waiting for Osimhen's departure to facilitate a move for Chelsea's Romelu Lukaku, as he looks to reshape his squad for the upcoming season.
