Real Madrid is determined to strengthen its forward line for next season, and one name that has become very relevant in the club’s offices is that of the prolific Nigerian striker, Victor Osimhen. With the departure of Karim Benzema to Al-Ittihad during the summer and the difficulty in signing Kylian Mbappé, Florentino Pérez has his eyes on this European football sensation.
Osimhen, who starred last season for Napoli, became Serie A’s top scorer and led the Italian team to its first league title since the Diego Armando Maradona era. His impressive scoring ability and versatility on the field have placed him on the radar of Real Madrid, who are looking to reestablish his dominance in the Spanish league and on the European scene.
Despite Real Madrid’s interest, Napoli has no intention of letting Osimhen leave easily. It is rumored that the Italian club would only be willing to consider offers close to €200 million for the Nigerian striker, a figure that could be prohibitive for any team. However, the final decision lies with Osimhen, who dreams of making the jump to a larger club.
The possible incorporation of Victor Osimhen to Real Madrid would open the door to the formation of a world-class attack. Young and talented players like Vinícius Jr. and Rodrygo Goes would join the ranks of the “Whites”, creating a promising offensive trio that could be the envy of all of Europe.
Real Madrid will closely monitor Osimhen’s situation in the coming months, as fans eagerly await the potential arrival of one of world football’s biggest rising stars.
