He told Sportitalia: “He has enormous mental strength.
“In light of everything he has been through, he reacted like a champion and by working with us he he has demonstrated it.
“He is sad because he is injured and cannot do what he loves most, which is to play for Napoli. Due to his abilities, for what he has shown, he has and will always have the best clubs in the world that want him.”
Chelsea have been applying pressure on Napoli to sell Osimhen.
The Nigerian forward is one who the Blues believe can lift them back to the upper echelons of the Premier League.
However, the 24-year-old won Serie A with Napoli last season and is loved by the club.
He was linked to the likes of Manchester United and Bayern Munich in the summer, but no move materialized.
