Juventus are reportedly considering a €75 million move for Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen, who is currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, Goal reports.
The 25-year-old has been linked with Chelsea and Manchester United, but Juventus are said to be exploring the possibility of triggering his release clause, potentially bringing him back to Serie A in January.
Osimhen has been in excellent form for Galatasaray, scoring nine goals in 12 games this season.

Despite the transfer speculation, the forward has made it clear he intends to stay in Turkey until the end of the season, stating, “I will not leave in January. I am at Galatasaray until the end of the season. If Napoli or Galatasaray approach me after that, we will talk. But for now, I’m very happy here.”
Napoli could use funds from Osimhen’s potential sale to bolster their squad with players like Lecce’s Patrick Dorgu and Empoli’s Jacopo Fazzini. However, with the January transfer window approaching, it remains to be seen if Juventus or another club will push to secure the striker.
