According to reports, Manchester United have reopened talks with the 26-year-old over a potential transfer in the summer transfer window. The Premier League club are hoping to sign a striker before the new season begins.
The Nigerian international forward is demanding a salary of €12m from his potential new club. He spent last season on loan with Galatasaray, who are also hoping to keep him in Turkey.
Napoli have set an asking price of €75m for the former Lille striker. Manchester United were previously in talks over a transfer for Osimhen in May, and the terms of a potential transfer remain the same.
