Super Eagles ace Victor Osimhen is set to reunite with some of his old teammates, as his future remains up in the air.

Napoli will reportedly invite Victor Osimhen to join their training camp this summer, as his future remains unresolved. 

The 26-year-old spent last season on loan at Galatasaray after failing to secure a dream move away from Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. 

He had a successful loan spell at Galatasaray and is now back on the market. However, with preseason approaching, the Nigerian will report back to Naples, according to reports. 

Napoli to invite Osimhen

Despite a collapse in his relationship with the club, Gazzetta dello Sport are reporting that the Partenopei will invite Osimhen to their preseason training camp.

According to the report relayed by Le Marca Sports, he will be invited for routine pre-season medical on July 14-15 and will go with them to their traditional training camp in Dimaro, Trentino Alto Adige, from July 17 to 27.

Osimhen also joined the Napoli training camp last season after handing in a transfer request. He is expected to remain a part of the squad until he makes a decision on his future. 

Osimhen and Napoli have a soured relationship at the moment.

Decision time for Osimhen 

The Nigerian has rejected multiple bids from Al Hilal this summer, as he prefers to remain in the context of European football despite the incredible financial offer from the Gulf.

He also has an offer from Galatasaray, his club from last season, with the Cim-Bom keen on keeping the player who led them to a league and cup double.

However, he continues to stall on the offer, with the Galatasaray president recently revealing that they were waiting on his decision. It is believed that Osimhen is still waiting for an offer from the Premier League.
