Hope he does well at Napoli so that they want to make his signing permanent at the end of the loan.

They'll be flush with cash when PSG or another buy Osimhen off them.

I would have thought his ability would have made a deal difficult not money, theyll get to see him for 4 months.

At least he'll have a new manager to impress.

I'd have thought his style would suit Italian football. He's a big old unit with a decent range of passing, but absolutely no pace whatsoever.

Reports that the deal is too expensive to make permanent;

Strange that they were happy to include the option-to-buy price in the loan contract. Negotiation tactics.

I suppose a straight player swap for Osimhen is out of the question. :(

Has the Donk got any playing time yet for them? He hadn't up to a couple of weeks back from what I could see.

 Think he's had a couple of sub appearances? Definitely one. But I don't think he's started a game yet.

Napoli are a total car crash this season.

Putting in one of the worst title defences of all time. Managerial churn, too.
