Liverpool-linked Osimhen 'wants Premier League move'

Lille forward Victor Osimhen is reportedly keen to join a Premier League club this summer.

The 21-year-old has been in impressive form for his French club this term, finding the back of the net on 18 occasions in 38 appearances in all competitions.

A number of clubs, including Liverpool, are believed to be interested in signing the Nigeria international, who has struck 13 times in Ligue 1 during the 2019-20 campaign.

According to The Nation, Osimhen has already turned down advances from the likes of Inter Milan as he favours a move to a Premier League club ahead of the 2020-21 season.

Lille have allegedly recently received an offer of £75m for the attacker, although the report from France did not identify the club in question.

The forward spent the 2018-19 campaign on loan at Charleroi from Bundesliga outfit Wolfsburg and scored 20 times for the Belgian side before arriving in Lille.
