Osimhen Set To Return To Serie A with Juventus

Victor Osimhen has agreed to a summer move to Juventus, following a spectacular loan spell at Galatasaray where he has scored 33 goals in just 38 appearances.

Victor Osimhen, the Nigerian striker who has been making waves in Turkey’s Super Lig, is set to return to Italy with a move to Juventus.

The 26-year-old forward, currently on loan at Galatasaray, has had an impressive season, scoring 33 goals in 38 matches.

Reports suggest that Juventus’ sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli, has already reached a personal agreement with Osimhen. An offer of €85 million has been presented to Napoli, and the club’s president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, is said to have accepted the bid.

Previously, De Laurentiis was hesitant to sell top players to other Italian clubs. However, with Osimhen’s contract due to end in June 2026, he has reportedly agreed to the deal to avoid losing the player for nothing.

Osimhen’s time at Napoli has been memorable, especially after helping the club win the Serie A title in the 2022–2023 season. Now, by joining one of Italy’s biggest rivals, Juventus, he closes a significant chapter in his career.

Although Osimhen has shown affection for Galatasaray and their fans, the opportunity to return to Serie A and play for Italy’s most successful team appears to have influenced his decision. Notably, Napoli had signed Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku last year, possibly hinting at their long-term plans without Osimhen.
