Victor Osimhen has reportedly turned down an offer from Juventus, as he sets his sights firmly on a Premier League move.
The Nigerian forward, currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, has been the subject of significant interest from top European clubs, and it seems he prefers a switch to England over a move to Serie A.
The 26-year-old striker, who has enjoyed a prolific season in Turkey, was said to have met with Juventus representatives recently to discuss a potential transfer.
However, according to reports from JuveFC, Osimhen rejected the idea of joining the Italian giants, signaling his preference for a different path.
While Juventus has long been linked with the striker, his reported €75 million buyout clause makes him an attractive option for several high-profile clubs across Europe.
But, despite the allure of joining one of Italy’s most prestigious sides, Osimhen appears keen on continuing his career in the Premier League, with top-flight clubs such as Chelsea, Manchester United, and Arsenal all reportedly monitoring his situation closely.
Osimhen’s form this season has certainly caught the attention of potential suitors. On loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, he has been in superb form, scoring 20 goals in just 23 league appearances.
His clinical finishing and dynamic play have been a highlight of the Turkish side’s campaign, further cementing his reputation as one of Europe’s most sought-after talents.
The former Lille striker, who joined Napoli in 2020, has been linked with several moves in the past, but this latest decision to turn down Juventus indicates that his ambitions may lie elsewhere.
With the Premier League’s top clubs vying for his signature, the upcoming summer transfer window promises to be an exciting one for Osimhen.
As his loan spell with Galatasaray nears its conclusion, the striker will likely have a range of options to choose from. Given his recent form and the interest from some of England’s biggest teams, it’s clear that Osimhen is poised for a major career move.
His decision to reject Juventus could mark the beginning of a new chapter in his career, one that could see him play a starring role in the Premier League.
For now, the focus will remain on his current season with Galatasaray, but with the summer transfer window fast approaching, Osimhen’s next steps could be among the most closely watched in European football.
