Southampton are reportedly keen on signing the striker.
According to a report from French media outlet Le Soir, Southampton are interested in signing Wolfsburg striker Victor Osimhen this summer, and they will have to pay just €12 million (£10.6 million) in order to secure his signature.
The 20-year-old has spent this season on loan with RSC Charleroi, and he has been in fine form, racking up 19 goals and four assists in 35 appearances in all competitions.
Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuttl will surely be desperate to bolster his attacking ranks at St Mary’s this summer, and Osimhen could be just the ticket.
French publication Le Soir claims that the Belgian outfit are ready to exercise their option to sign the Wolfsburg hitman on a €6 million (£5.3 million) permanent deal this summer, before selling him on again for double that.
And that’s where Southampton come in.
The south coast outfit are reportedly keen to bring the Nigerian youngster to St Mary’s, although they will face competition from Watford.
Osimhen has the potential to go on and become a really elite player, and if Southampton do mange to sign him, it could turn out to be a really significant piece of business for them.
