Saturday, August 31, 2024 - Napoli have officially removed Victor Osimhen from their Serie A squad list, and have also handed his squad number over to new signing Romelu Lukaku, who will wear the no.9 shirt for the 2024-25 season.
His removal from the squad list comes after a chaotic
transfer deadline day, which saw him fail to agree on a move to
either Chelsea or Al-Ahli in Saudi Arabia on deadline day.
Osimhen remains contracted to Napoli until the summer of
2026 and is on a contract that costs around €10m per season in wages.
In addition to Osimhen, defender Mario Rui has also been
removed from the squad list to make room for new signings. However,
Nigerian-Italian midfielder Michael Folorunsho retains his place in the team.
Napoli will be in league action on Saturday evening, August
31, hosting Parma at the Stadio Maradona.
