Liverpool Reach Agreement for Victor Osimhen in Major Summer Signing
In a major development on the summer transfer front, Liverpool FC have reportedly struck a full agreement with Napoli for the signing of Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. The deal is believed to be valued between €75 million and €80 million, significantly below the forward’s original €130 million release clause.
Osimhen, currently on loan at Galatasaray, has had an outstanding season, registering 24 goals in 27 matches — form that has reignited interest from top clubs across Europe, including Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain. But it appears Liverpool have acted quickly and decisively to secure the 26-year-old’s signature.
According to sources, a medical has already been scheduled, signaling the advanced nature of negotiations. While official confirmation is still awaited, the reported agreement suggests Liverpool are wasting no time in reshaping their attack ahead of the upcoming campaign.
The Reds’ interest in Osimhen comes amid growing uncertainty surrounding their current attacking options. With questions hanging over the futures of Mohamed Salah, Darwin Núñez, and Luis Díaz, Liverpool’s need for a reliable and dynamic centre-forward has become a priority.
Osimhen’s blend of pace, power, and clinical finishing fits well into Liverpool’s attacking philosophy and could provide a new focal point in the final third. His ability to press and link up play also suits the club’s high-intensity approach.
If finalized, this move would not only be one of Liverpool’s most high-profile signings in recent years, but also a strong signal of intent as the club prepares for a new era under incoming manager Arne Slot.
Fans will now be watching closely for official confirmation, with optimism growing that Osimhen could be leading the line at Anfield when the new season kicks off.
