Napoli’s star forward, Victor Osimhen, is reportedly eager to make the switch to the Premier League this summer, with early discussions already underway with Liverpool regarding a potential move.
According to *TBR Football*, Liverpool are showing serious interest in signing the 26-year-old striker, though they are expected to face stiff competition from Manchester United. Osimhen has strengthened his reputation as one of the top goal scorers in the game, particularly following a standout loan spell at Galatasaray, where he netted 37 goals in 41 matches.
His remarkable form has captured the attention of several top European clubs, with both Liverpool and Manchester United viewing him as a key solution to their attacking struggles. However, it remains to be seen which club will be first to activate his reported £63 million release clause.
The Nigerian forward has already rejected a highly lucrative offer from a Saudi Arabian club, signaling his preference to remain in Europe and compete at the highest level. With his time at Napoli nearing its end, the Italian side is preparing to sell him in a permanent deal this summer.
Liverpool, in particular, are in dire need of a consistent goal scorer. Darwin Nunez had a difficult season, scoring only seven goals in all competitions. The Reds hope to find a more clinical finisher to lead their front line in their pursuit of domestic and European titles. The chance to play for the reigning Premier League champions could be a major draw for Osimhen.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are also in the market for attacking reinforcements after a disappointing season that saw them miss out on European qualification. Strikers like Joshua Zirkzee and Rasmus Hojlund have failed to make a significant impact, and the club is looking to revamp its squad. Securing a proven striker like Osimhen could be a vital part of their efforts to return to the Champions League.
