Top Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen is set to join Juventus from Napoli during the upcoming summer transfer window after an agreement was reached between both clubs.
According to renowned Tuttosport journalist Raffaele Auriemma, Juventus sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli has successfully struck a deal with Osimhen, with the Bianconeri already tabling an official offer of €85 million for the 26-year-old.
Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis reluctantly approved the move, despite Osimhen joining a direct Serie A rival, in order to avoid losing the star forward on a free transfer when his current deal expires in June 2026.
