Victor Osimhen faces fine from Napoli after nightclub altercation
Victor Osimhen is facing a significant fine from Napoli following a recent altercation with a fan caught on camera at a nightclub.
The 25-year-old striker, who has been linked with a move to Chelsea, was notably absent from Napoli’s Coppa Italia first-round match against Modena on Saturday, amid ongoing speculation about his future with the club.

Napoli’s director Giovanni Manna confirmed that Osimhen had requested to leave the club, though his hefty €130m release clause has deterred many potential suitors. Chelsea remains the only European club actively pursuing him, after PSG decided against a transfer.
In the video, Osimhen is seen pushing through a crowd, visibly upset by being recorded, and confronting the fan before the footage cuts off. Italian publication Corriere dello Sport reports that Osimhen may face disciplinary action, with Napoli’s manager Antonio Conte known for his strict stance on player conduct.
