What has Antonio Conte said about Victor Osimhen?

Following his failure to secure a move away from Napoli, Antonio Conte confirmed that Osimhen will not be re-integrated into the first-team squad.

Chelsea’s Romelu Lukaku has arrived on a permanent deal and Conte is adamant that Osimhen will play no role in Naples.

The Italian told reporters: “NO player will be reintegrated.

“Those who are out of the project will remain out of the project. We made our choices and work in one direction all together.”

Lukaku scored on his Napoli debut against Parma and has also taken Osimhen’s No.9 shirt at the club.
