Representatives of super eagles star striker Victor Osimhen are reportedly in talks with Liverpool over a posible move to Liverpool in the summer according to Le10sport.com.
The Lille forward who is in high demand among top clubs in Europe following an impressive campaign with Ligue 1 side has been the subject of discussion in Europe as he has scored 18 goals from a total of 36 games in all competitions before the season was halted by the coronavirus pandemic.
Liverpool and his representatives are in talks after Osimhen gave his approval for the talks and if all goes as planned, Liverpool will make an offer for the 21 year old who is valued at 80 million euros by the French side.
Few days ago, Napoli were also said to be preparing a bid of 60 million euros for the forward who is also on the Manchester United scouts list as well as that of Chelsea who are keen to land the signature of the strike on paper.
For now his priority is to move to England and not to Germany, Spain or Italy where teams have also made inquires about his availability. Lille are resigned to losing the forward in the summer.
President of the club Gerard Lopez confirmed that he has already received an offer for the forward but didn’t specify the club that has made a bid for the forward. For now only the English teams can afford Lille’s 80 million euros price tag.
