Reds fight for Victor

- BY TOM HOPKINSON

LIVERPOOL and Arsenal are among big-name suitors vying to sign Nigeria striker Victor Osimhen.

The 23-year-old has had an excellent season at Napoli – with 16 goals and five assists in 28 matches – and the Italian side are keen to cash in on his progress this summer.

His agents have been given the green light to tout their client around the Premier League, with clubs told he will cost around £80million.

Osimhen, who began his career at Wolfsburg, is open to leaving Naples but wants only to join a Champions League club, which has ruled out Newcastle for now at least.
