The Nigerian striker, who is currently on loan at Galatasaray following a failed permanent exit from Napoli last summer, is once again the centre of a transfer speculation with Juve leading the charge to bring him back to the Serie A.
Juventus see Osimhen as perfect signing
Osimhen has been nothing short of prolific in Turkey, smashing in 24 goals in just 27 league games and 33 overall in 37 appearances.

That kind of form has reignited interest across Europe and Asia, but Juventus are clearly the most desperate suitor within Italy.
The Bianconeri are reportedly planning to offload Dusan Vlahovic this summer and see Osimhen as the perfect centrepiece to rebuild their attack.

However, Osimhen’s €75 million release clause is only valid for clubs outside of Italy, meaning Juventus cannot simply trigger it.
Juventus desperate for Osimhen move
Despite that setback, they are reportedly willing to offer Napoli a package worth €85 million in transfer fees and bonuses to secure the 26-year-old.

Now, it will be down to Napoli to decide whether that sum is enough to allow their star striker move to a direct Serie A rival.
While Juventus are ready to dig deep, they are not the only ones circling. Saudi giants Al-Hilal are prepared to meet the €75 million release clause outright and offer Osimhen an eye-watering salary, potentially more than €30 million per season.

That level of financial muscle could test Osimhen’s resolve, especially with such a massive personal payday on the table.
