The speculation surrounding Victor Osimhen's future is gathering momentum as the 2024/25 season nears its conclusion.

Currently on loan at Galatasaray in the Turkish Super Lig, the 26-year-old has been widely linked with a move to the English Premier League in the summer.

Other reports have also linked the Nigerian international with a big-money move to the Saudi Pro League next season.

Despite being in superb form for Galatasaray, a return to Napoli is highly unlikely, with both parties reportedly willing to part ways in the summer for a suitable transfer fee.

Another club that has shown keen interest in Osimhen is Serie A giants Juventus.

Reports indicate that the Bianconeri are considering a move for the Nigerian international as possible replacement for Dusan Vlahovic who has linked with a move away from Turin.

However, Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis has firmly stated that Osimhen will not be sold to Juventus.

Speaking on Radio Kiss Kiss, as reported by Calciomercato, de Laurentiis clearly stated, "No! Never at Juventus."

The former Lille striker has registered 29 goals and five assists in 33 competitive matches for Galatasaray this season.
