Juventus plan to offload Dusan Vlahovic and extend Randal Kolo Muani's loan, making the acquisition of a prolific striker like Osimhen a priority.

Osimhen has impressed during his loan spell at Galatasaray, scoring 20 goals in 22 league appearances (26 in 30 in all competitions). 

What next for Osimhen?

The Nigerian striker is currently on international duty with the Super Eagles, who host Zimbabwe in World Cup qualifying on Tuesday.
