Ex-Juve star Sissoko urges Juventus to get ‘devastating’ Super Eagles star

Former Juventus star wants the Bianconeri to sign the Nigerian forward who’s making headlines in European football 

Alvaro Morata is on his way out of the Juventus Stadium this season and there’s need for an immediate replacement.

Mohammed Sissoko, a former Mali international has suggested to Juventus to sign Victor Osimhen as they’d need a player with the spirit of a winner.

Sissoko, according to IlBiancoNero.com said Osimhen is the attacker Juventus need to reignite their title credentials after missing out on the Serie A for two straight seasons.

The Old Lady endured a difficult season under Massimo Allegri as they came fourth behind champions AC Milan, Inter Milan and Napoli.

When asked about the player needed to make a difference for Juventus next season, Sissoko answered in the affirmative and said it’s the Nigerian international that can bring the needed impetus to the team’s attack.

“Victor [Osimhen] without a doubt,” Sissoko said.

“He is the right player for Juve, there are other young and strong players but Osimhen is devastating. I hope that Juve will have a strong player and that he will be a champion.”

Osimhen scored 14 goals in 27 league appearances for Napoli and won the best U-23 player in the league.

Napoli have shown reluctance to sell and have slammed a €110m price tag on the Nigerian forward.
