Highly-rated Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has reportedly turned down advances from Juventus.

Victor Osimhen is set to return to his parent club, SSC Napoli, after his season-long loan spell in Turkey with Super Lig outfit Galatasaray.

After impressing during his loan spell, the striker is a transfer target of several clubs in Europe and Saudi Arabia.

The forward said to fancy a move to Chelsea is also open to other clubs as he nears the end of his Napoli stay.

It is understood that for the striker to move, he wants a club that will pay him at least €295,000 per week and a little over €15 million per year.

While reports indicate that Chelsea are ready to meet these demands and plan to trigger his 75 million euros release clause, Juventus were said to be willing to paying €85 million to Napoli to make the deal happen.

Osimhen who does not see himself playing for Juventus has turned down the advances from the club and will look at other options on the table this summer.

As reported by AfricaSoccer this week, Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal are also ready to pay €100 million to sign Osimhen this summer.
