NAPOLI hitman Victor Osimhen has dealt his suitors a blow by declaring: I am already at one of the biggest clubs.

The Nigeria international has caught the eye of several teams over the last 18 months with a string of scintillating displays for the Italian giants - who are on the brink of winning the Scudetto.

Manchester United are among the teams interested in acquiring Osimhen's services, although they'll seemingly be hard-pressed to following his public committal to the Neopolitans.

The 24-year-old told TG5: "'I’m at a great club and my career is growing constantly.

"I am already at one of the biggest clubs and I could not ask for more. Forza Napoli always!"

Osimhen's comments come just over a month after he admitted he dreams of playing in the Prem.

He said: "I think playing in one of the top five leagues in the world (Serie A) is an amazing feeling for me.

"A lot of people worldwide consider the Premier League as the best and the strongest league but now I'm in one of the best leagues in the world which is the Italian Serie A.

"I'm working so hard to make sure that I achieve my dream of playing in the Premier League someday.

"But like I said, it's a process and I just want to keep on this momentum and continue to do well."

Napoli are 14 points clear of second-placed Lazio and are on the brink of winning their first Serie A title in 33 years.

Osimhen said: "We are close to the objective and cannot wait to make our dream come true, to make it a reality.

"The players always believed, we always thought we could do something exceptional, even when nobody else believed we could.

"The affection from the city is extraordinary, I have never received so much love. I can’t wait to celebrate with them at the stadium."

Osihmen and his Napoli team-mates will be back in action on Tuesday night, facing fellow Italians AC Milan in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie.
