Liverpool might be in the market for a new center-forward this summer, with Napoli’s Victor Osimhen emerging as a potential target, according to Corriere dello Sport.
Jurgen Klopp has primarily relied on Darwin Nunez as his main striker this season, but due to Nunez’s inconsistent performances, the club’s management is considering adding another top-tier forward.
Although Liverpool has been a strong contender in the Premier League, they have lagged behind Manchester City, who have benefited significantly from Erling Haaland’s goal-scoring prowess.
Reports indicate that Osimhen is looking to leave Napoli at the season’s end, with Liverpool being one of several interested clubs, including Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain. Osimhen, who earns £250,000 a week, has a release clause set at €130 million (£111 million).
Folarin Balogun has labeled Osimhen as ‘world-class,’ while his Nigerian teammate Emmanuel Dennis has called him a ‘cheat code.’ Osimhen aspires to move to the Premier League, which could give Liverpool the scoring edge they need to compete for the title.
When questioned about his future, Osimhen expressed his desire to play in the Premier League when the opportunity arises.
