La Gazzetta dello Sport claims that Victor Osimhen remains Juventus’ top priority target in attack, but the Old Lady must first sell Dusan Vlahovic and then convince Napoli to sell the Nigerian star, possibly before mid-July.

The Nigerian international has already rejected a €30m-a-year offer from Al-Hilal, and according to Gazzetta, he’s open to continuing his career in Serie A in 2025-26.
Juventus remain one of the clubs interested, even after the departure of Cristiano Giuntoli and the appointment of Damien Comolli as their new General Manager.

Osimhen has a €75m clause in his Napoli contract, but it’s not valid for Serie A clubs. This means Juventus would need to negotiate a transfer fee with Aurelio De Laurentiis, the Partenopei President.
Another obstacle arises from Vlahovic, who is unwilling to join Fenerbahce and is waiting for offers from top European clubs, with just a year left on his contract at the Allianz Stadium.

According to Gazzetta, and contrary to other reports in April, Osimhen is still open to joining Juventus, but won’t wait too long to pick a new club. The Nigerian will likely wait until mid-July before deciding on his next destination.
The pink paper claims that Galatasaray still hope to sign Osimhen permanently, but Al-Hilal remain interested as well, just like PSG and some Premier League clubs.
