Fresh interests are coming for Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen who has persistently been linked with a move to the Premier League where the likes of Liverpool, Newcastle United and even Arsenal are said to be keen on his signature.

Now it is been reported that Bayern Munich have asked Napoli for information about Osimhen as they consider possible replacements for Robert Lewandowski.

The 23-year-old Nigerian forward had a strong season under Luciano Spalletti, scoring 14 goals in 27 Serie A appearances, but he could be sold this summer as the Partenopei look to reduce their wage bill and revitalise their squad, although he would not come cheap.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport, Bayern contacted Napoli to ask for information about Osimhen and the feasibility of a possible deal. The German giants are looking to replace Lewandowski and are considering a number of top options.

Osimhen is a much-wanted figure, however, with Manchester United, Arsenal and Newcastle United all interested in making a summer move for him. Things have cooled off on this front a little, though.

Napoli have been clear regarding their €100m price tag, so a top offer will be needed to secure the Nigerian’s signature in the coming months.
