Spurs Eye Osimhen Transfer, Need to Offload Players First

Tottenham Hotspur is considering signing Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen this summer, as reported by TEAMtalk. However, the Premier League club must first part ways with either Dominic Solanke or Richarlison to accommodate Osimhen in their squad.

The club has been presented with the opportunity to acquire the Super Eagles forward as they search for a proven centre-forward ahead of the new season. Any potential deal is expected to be financially challenging, with Osimhen's reported weekly salary of €288,000 after tax making him the highest-paid player at Tottenham.

Osimhen has maintained his status as one of Europe's top strikers since his transfer from Napoli to Galatasaray in 2024, where he scored 15 goals and provided five assists in 19 Turkish Super Lig starts last season. Reports indicate that Osimhen is eager to play in the Premier League during his prime years, which could benefit Tottenham's pursuit, but the club needs to reduce their squad and wage bill first.
