Former player Roberto Pruzzo has made a bold claim about Victor Osimhen’s future, stating that the Nigerian striker will be wearing the black and white stripes of Juventus next season.
Speaking to Radio Radio, Pruzzo shared insider information about Osimhen’s potential move to Turin. The striker, currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, has been the subject of intense transfer speculation in recent months.
“I know that Juventus’ next striker will be Osimhen,” Pruzzo declared. “A reliable source close to his entourage revealed this to me in Florence. They are certain about moving to Turin next year.”
This statement adds fuel to the ongoing rumors linking Osimhen with a move to Juventus. The Bianconeri have reportedly been eyeing the Nigerian international as a potential replacement for Dusan Vlahovic, who is expected to leave the club in the summer.
Osimhen’s current situation is complex. He joined Galatasaray on a season-long loan in September 2024, with Napoli retaining his rights. His contract with Napoli runs until 2026, with a reported release clause of €75 million for non-Italian clubs.
If Pruzzo’s information proves accurate, it would mark a significant coup for Juventus. Osimhen has established himself as one of Europe’s most prolific strikers, and his potential arrival in Turin could significantly boost Juventus’ attacking prowess.
However, any move would likely involve complex negotiations, given Napoli’s reluctance to sell to a direct rival and the financial implications of such a high-profile transfer.
