Napoli’s star striker and Nigeria’s International Victor Osimhen, has suddenly become a target for a portion of Europe’s best clubs, with Bayern Munich clearly willing to pay over €100 million for his services.
Victor Osimhen, a local of Edo state, has attracted quite a number of clubs with Real Madrid joining the race as the Nigerian takes charge of Napoli’s forward.
Because of a progression of injuries and a session with Covid-19, he just scored 10 goals in his first season with Napoli, after the Italian club paid a club record €81.3 million to carry the Nigerian from Lille.
In Osimhen’s second season with Napoli, he has so far scored 9 goals in just 11 games, the latest coming in last Thursday’s 3-0 Europa League prevail upon Legia Warsaw.
As per a report in the Spanish paper AS, Osimhen has been on the radar of Bayern Munich Real Madrid, with the German club willing to pay over €100 million to sign the Nigerian worldwide toward the finish of the period, conceivably as a swap for the maturing Robert Lewandowski, who is likewise on Real Madrid’s radar.
As per AS, Osimhen isn’t Real Madrid’s top exchange target, yet on the off chance that the Spanish club neglects to sign its best three targets, Kylian Mbappé, Erling Hland, and Robert Lewandowski, he may ascend to the first spot on the list.
As indicated by the distribution, the 33-year-old Lewandowski, whose agreement with Bayern Munich ends in 2023, may demand a transfer the following summer as he needs another test outside of the Bundesliga, where he has played for the beyond 12 seasons, first with Borussia Dortmund and afterward for Bayern.
Bayern will exchange Lewandowski and sign Osimhen as a substitution since they are probably not going to see his agreement terminate.
As per the source, Bayern Munich will pay Napoli more than €100 million to sign the Nigerian, who recently played in the Bundesliga for Wolfsburg.
On Sunday, scouts from Bayern Munich and Real Madrid were available in Rome’s Stadio Olimpico, where Osimhen and Napoli were denied the opportunity to set another Serie A record by Roma, who held them to a goalless draw, keeping the Blues from winning their 10th successive Serie A game.
