Italian giants Juventus have reportedly tabled a leading offer of €70 million for Napoli forward Victor Osimhen, as they look to reinforce their attacking options ahead of the summer transfer window.
According to recent reports, Manchester United—once considered a major contender for the Nigerian international—have now pulled out of the race, shifting the focus to other European and Middle Eastern clubs eyeing the prolific striker.
Osimhen, 26, has become a hot commodity once again, drawing serious interest from top-tier clubs due to his resurgence in form.
Currently shining at Galatasaray, he has notched 30 goals and contributed seven assists in 35 appearances this season, re-establishing himself as one of Europe’s most lethal forwards—a level he last reached during the 2022–23 campaign.
Transfer insider David Ornstein revealed that Paris Saint-Germain have now emerged as strong contenders for Osimhen’s signature following Manchester United’s withdrawal.
PSG, long-time admirers of the Nigerian star, are reportedly preparing to meet his £63 million release clause and are also willing to match his wage demands.
Sources from Give Me Sport indicate that PSG’s growing interest is now a cause for concern among other suitors, particularly Chelsea and United, who view the French club as their main rival in the pursuit of the striker.
In a new twist, journalist Ben Jacobs reported on Wednesday that Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal are also keeping tabs on Osimhen.
The club has reportedly set aside the budget it had initially earmarked for a move for Mohamed Salah and is now considering using those funds to lure Osimhen to the Middle East.
With the FIFA Club World Cup approaching, Al-Hilal are determined to sign a marquee player, and Osimhen has emerged as one of their top targets.
Sources close to the player suggest he may be open to a move to Saudi Arabia if the right offer is presented.
As interest intensifies from across Europe and the Middle East, the race for Osimhen’s signature is expected to heat up even further in the coming weeks.
