Davis believes Liverpool could acquire Osimhen for £60 million.
A bombshell revelation has emerged about Liverpool's transfer ambitions, with Super Eagles star Victor Osimhen reportedly just 24 hours away from joining the Reds in January.

According to Dave Davis on the Anfield Index podcast, the deal fell through due to Osimhen's loyalty payments owed by Napoli, not wage demands or club refusal.
The news raises questions about what could have been if the deal had materialised. Osimhen's potential arrival would have seen Darwin Núñez's position at the club become precarious, with Núñez even reportedly finalizing a deal with Al-Nassr worth £70 million before Osimhen's transfer collapsed.
