The 24-year-old is expected to sign an extension with a release clause of €130-140m inserted into the contract.
“We are accustomed to working behind the scenes and without big announcements before things are done. It will obviously be up to President Aurelio De Laurentiis to give the news,” Meluso told Mediaset.
“It has been a long negotiation process and we hope to conclude it, but only make announcements when everything is sealed. Both parties are eager to get this deal closed and we’ll see what happens over the next few weeks.”
Osimhen has scored seven times in 12 league appearances for Walter Mazzarri’s side this season.
