Liverpool’s Surprise Interest in Napoli’s Victor Osimhen for 2024

Liverpool has unexpectedly emerged as a contender for the signature of Napoli’s striker, Victor Osimhen, in the upcoming transfer window. Osimhen, renowned as one of the world’s top strikers, played a pivotal role in Napoli’s Scudetto victory last season, making him a highly sought-after talent. However, recent controversies surrounding Napoli’s social media activities have strained Osimhen’s relationship with the club, and it’s widely anticipated that he will depart Naples in the near future. Radio Kiss Kiss reports that Liverpool is expressing a significant interest in securing his services.

Italian journalist Valter De Maggio, who is also the director of Radio Kiss Kiss, revealed, “There is strong, strong interest in Liverpool’s Victor Osimhen. Then it will be necessary to understand whether the Reds will put pressure on Osimhen’s agent not to renew it or not.”

While Liverpool is likely to make a substantial signing if Mohamed Salah departs next year, some are skeptical about the need for another high-priced striker given their recent acquisition of Darwin Nunez. With ample financial resources at their disposal, Osimhen, who is valued at £150 million (as reported by the Mail), may be within reach for Liverpool. However, there are doubts about whether the club will pursue this option.

The upcoming developments in Osimhen’s career in 2024 remain uncertain, but Liverpool’s intentions in this matter are still to be determined.
