Italian giants Juventus are reportedly preparing a move to secure the services of Napoli’s prolific striker Victor Osimhen.
The Nigerian international, currently on loan at Galatasaray, has become one of the most sought-after forwards in European football, attracting attention from multiple top-tier clubs.
Osimhen’s impressive form this season, netting 26 goals and providing 4 assists in 30 appearances across all competitions, has solidified his status as a prime transfer target.
His goal-scoring prowess has not only helped Galatasaray in their domestic campaign but has also caught the eye of several European giants.
According to Tuttosport, Juventus are crafting a strategic cash-plus-player offer involving their Italian defender Federico Gatti.
This potential swap deal has piqued the interest of Napoli, particularly due to their coach Antonio Conte’s admiration for Gatti.
The 25-year-old center-back has been a regular starter for Juventus this season, making 37 appearances and contributing both defensively and offensively.
Osimhen’s contract with Napoli includes a release clause set at €75 million, which becomes active in the summer of 2025.
However, this clause is exclusively applicable to foreign clubs, necessitating Italian suitors like Juventus to negotiate directly with Napoli.
