On loan Napoli striker Victor Osimhen is one name on the priority list of summer transfer targets of Italian Serie A giants Juventus according to Rai Sports journalist Paolo Paganini, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Osimhen is currently on a season long loan deal to Galatasaray following the breakdown of a proposed move to English Premier League side Chelsea and also Saudi Arabia side Al Ahli on transfer deadline day.
He is expected to return to Napoli next summer, but there is little or no chance of him continuing at the club with relationship with the hierarchy of the club at an all time low. A move next summer is the surest option for now.
Paganini explained that Juventus who are looking for an A-list striker like Lautaro Martinez at Inter Milan as an upgrade on Dusan Vlahovic see Osimhen and Lille forward Jonathan David as top two options in the summer.
He cited the relationship between Osimhen’s agent and the sporting director of Juventus Cristiano Giuntoli as a factor, which could see the deal happen with less complications.
