Transfer Speculation: Victor Osimhen Keeps Premier League Move On The Table

Note that since the 25-year-old Nigerian striker helped Napoli win the Scudetto for the first time in 33 years last season, after scoring 26 goals and providing five assists, he has been one of the most sought-after strikers in the world.

Premier League clubs like Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United, and even Liverpool have been linked with Victor Osimhen since last summer.

Amidst the transfer saga, Osimhen decided to extend his contract with Napoli until June 30, 2026, with a release clause worth about €130 million. But that is not expected to be enough to prevent clubs from bidding for him.

In an interview with Sky Sports quoted by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano earlier today, January 16, Victor Osimhen said: “Of course, one day I’d love to play in the Premier League.

“But for now I’ve other plans for my career.

“When the time comes, everyone will know.”

Victor Osimhen has played a game and scored a goal so far in the ongoing 2023 AFCON. He is expected to be in action against the hosts of the tournament, Ivory Coast on January 18
