A recent report from renowned Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg indicates that Napoli’s star striker Victor Osimhen is expressing a willingness to make a move to Bayern Munich. Despite currently being sidelined due to injury, the 24-year-old Nigerian forward is recognized as one of the top strikers in European football today. His exceptional talent has garnered significant interest from elite clubs, including Manchester United and PSG, particularly in the recent months as he continues to showcase his skills and goal-scoring ability.

Plettenberg writes that there is a strong possibility that Osimhen would ‘definitely join Bayern’ in the upcoming summer transfer window. This statement suggests that a potential transfer deal for the talented Nigerian international may already be in the works. Additionally, Osimhen has previously expressed a desire to play in the Premier League at some point in his career, which raises the possibility of a summer transfer, especially given the numerous clubs vying for his signature.

The report further reveals that the management at Bayern Munich holds a significant admiration for the Napoli striker. Both Osimhen and his representatives are reportedly aware of the keen interest from the German champions. However, the progression of this potential transfer largely hinges on the financial aspect of the deal. Napoli’s president, Aurelio de Laurentiis, is reportedly firm on his €100 million valuation of the striker, which will undoubtedly influence any negotiations. Furthermore, the input of Bayern’s coach Thomas Tuchel regarding the transfer strategy will play a crucial role in the unfolding events.

This season, Osimhen has been in remarkable form, netting a total of 30 goals across all competitions for both his club and the national team. Out of these, 21 goals have come from his impressive performances in Serie A, along with four goals scored during the Champions League campaign. His consistent scoring ability reinforces his status as a highly sought-after player in the transfer market.
