Real Madrid targets Victor Osimhen as potential Benzema successor

Real Madrid has reportedly shown interest in signing Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen from Galatasaray as part of their plans to strengthen their attacking options. According to sources in Italy, the Spanish giants are looking to secure a world-class replacement for Karim Benzema, who departed the club.

Although Real Madrid recently welcomed Kylian Mbappé to their ranks, they continue to pursue additional firepower.

Osimhen, who has attracted attention from top clubs like Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Newcastle, is a key target for Madrid.

However, the club is reportedly keen to make a move for the striker in the summer of 2025, rather than in the upcoming January transfer window.

Osimhen’s impressive performances in Turkey have put him on the radar of several European powerhouses, and a bidding war could soon follow.

Real Madrid, however, remains focused on securing him as part of their long-term plan to solidify their attack for the future.
