Journalist Christian Falk has reported that a key reason why Victor Osimhen could reject a transfer to Tottenham Hotspur and instead join Bayern Munich is due to his girlfriend.
A claim was made in March as well that the Napoli goalscorer would fancy a move to Thomas Tuchel and Co. in the summer.
However, it seems like one reason why Victor Osimhen could snub a transfer to Tottenham Hotspur and instead join Bayern Munich is due to his girlfriend.
How Victor Osimhen girlfriend could influence him to snub Tottenham for Bayern transfer
The Nigerian striker has been in ridiculous touch this campaign, registering 26 goals and five assists in all competitions, as per Transfermarkt.
The 24-year-old has been in and amongst the conversation for being the standout player in his position, with national teammate William Troost-Ekong calling him the ‘best striker in the world’ (as relayed by The Punch).
As Bayern seem to be circling around Victor Osimhen in the hope of a transfer, it seems his girlfriend could nudge him towards them instead of Tottenham after all.
“Victor Osimhen’s girlfriend Stephanie is German and would like to return to her homeland. That’s why the striker is also open for a Transfer to FC Bayern”, Christian Falk said.
HITC View: Tottenham had no chance in the first place
While the Super Eagles superstar’s status as the best No.9 in world football can be debated, what cannot be questioned is his quality.
Naturally, the upper echelon of European clubs would fancy a transfer involving Victor Osimhen such as Bayern Munich and regardless of what his girlfriend wishes, Tottenham simply never had a chance.
While the German giants could end up trophy-less this season, it is expected that they will seriously contend on all fronts next campaign.
Can the same be said about Spurs? The answer is a resounding no.
