The 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup sensation Victor Osimhen has suggested he will be joining Wolfsburg of Germany having rejected the chance to join Arsenal in the English Premier League.

Osimhen, who was named the youth player of the year at the Glo-CAF awards in Abuja on Thursday, said he had visited the Wolfsburg training complex in Germany.

The 16-year-old striker also revealed that he intends to stay at the club as long as possible.

He told reporters:“I have visited the team in Wolfsburg and with the promises the coach made to me when I visited the arena, I think Wolfsburg is my destination.”

He added:“I’m going to stay at Wolfsburg for as long as the team can keep me.”

Osimhen was named third most valuable player at the Fifa U17 World Cup where he scored 10 goals to win the Golden Boot award.

He was called up to the Nigeria U23 side that won the U23 Africa Cup of Nations in Senegal last month.
