Recently, it was reported Lille received a whopping €85m ( ₦36.5B) bid from an unnamed club for the services of Osimhen.
It remains to be seen if the former Royal Charleroi will be at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy next season, but Lille have always insisted they intend to keep him for at least a season more.
Osimhen joined Christophe Galtier’s side from Royal Charleroi for €13m last summer, which now looks like a bargain. The Nigeria international has scored 18 goals and provided six assists in 38 games for Les Dogues this season.
