Liverpool are reportedly on the brink of completing a major signing, with Napoli striker Victor Osimhen expected to join the Premier League club within the next 24 hours.
The Nigerian star, known for his goal-scoring prowess, could soon become a key addition to Liverpool’s front line, with sources indicating that a transfer fee of approximately £75 million is close to being agreed — significantly lower than his original £110 million release clause.
Napoli are believed to be open to a slightly reduced deal with performance-based add-ons, aiming to conclude the transfer quickly to begin planning for next season.
At 25, Osimhen is entering the prime of his career. Despite injury issues last season, he still managed to net 26 goals and was instrumental in Napoli’s 2023 Serie A title triumph. His speed, power, and finishing skills make him a strong fit for the Premier League.
With questions surrounding Darwin Núñez’s future and tactical changes under new head coach Arne Slot, Osimhen’s signing could mark a major shift in Liverpool’s offensive approach.
Personal terms are reportedly settled, and Osimhen is expected to undergo a medical and complete his contract in England within a day. Anticipation is rising as Liverpool fans await the arrival of their potential new star striker
