Victor Osimhen, the Napoli striker, is allegedly ready to join La Liga heavyweights Atletico Madrid at the conclusion of the season.

This season, Osimhen has firmly established himself as one of Europe’s top scorers.

Despite playing only 20 games for Napoli, the 24-year-old scored against Empoli on Friday, bringing his Serie A goal count to 19.

In Europe, the Nigerian international is second only to Manchester City’s Erling Haaland in the battle for the Golden Shoe, and he is six goals ahead of Milan’s Lautaro Martinez in the league rankings.

His strong efforts for Napoli this season have sparked a lot of attention, and he might be on his way out this summer.

Atletico Madrid are interested in signing Osimhen this summer, according to Fichajes.

According to the source, with Joao Felix appearing increasingly set to depart Atletico Madrid this summer, Los Rojiblancos executives are eager to utilize the proceeds from his sale to pursue the signing of Osimhen.
