Juventus have stepped up their pursuit of Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen , with a formal bid in the works as they look to make the Napoli forward their marquee signing for the 2025/26 campaign,
According to reports in Italy, the Bianconeri are readying an offer worth around 85 million - including add-ons - to tempt Napoli into selling their prized asset.
The Serie A giants view Osimhen as a potential replacement should Dusan Vlahovic or Randal Kolo Muani leave the club in the coming months.
Osimhen last summer renewed his contract with Napoli before being loaned to Galatasaray , where he has scored an astonishing 33 goals in 37 matches for the Turkish club. The new deal for the former African Footballer of the Year includes a 75m release clause, but crucially, it only applies to foreign clubs.
That means Juventus would need to enter direct negotiations with Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis - a potentially tense encounter given the past friction between De Laurentiis and Juve's sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli, who previously worked at Napoli.
