The 25-year-old has garnered interest from Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United, with former Chelsea and Nigeria midfielder John Obi Mikel encouraging him to consider a move to Stamford Bridge.
Osimhen has recently hinted strongly that his tenure with Napoli might conclude by the end of the season.
‘The rumour is going around about me linked with the Premier League,’ Osimhen told CBS Sports.
“I already know the next step I want to take.”
‘Of course, when you’re one of the hottest strikers in the world you expect this type of thing, the EPL it’s one of the biggest and best leagues in the world.
‘For me, I’m with Napoli, signed a new contract and enjoying my time there with the team, at the end of the season I’ve already made up my mind, I already know what I want to do in my career.
‘Since I’ve started, I’ve been the one making my own decisions on everything and it’s working out well for me, even though when I started it didn’t go so well.
‘I already have my plan, I already know the next step I want to take, so for now I just want to finish the season strong.’
