Wolfsburg Admit They Face Stumbling Block In Signing Victor Osimhen, Striker Partly Owned By Third Party Investor
Published: January 05, 2016
VfL Wolfsburg sporting director Klaus Allofs has admitted that it will be difficult for the Bundesliga club to sign Nigeria youth international Victor Osimhen as there are a lot of details yet to be ironed out.
The retired Germany international did not hit the nail on the head but one of the major stumbling blocks in the proposed deal is that 36 Lion CEO Liameed Gafar confessed that he illegally acquired ten percent of the economic rights of Osimhen for =N=6 million from Ultimate Strikers , which is prohibited by Fifa.
“We have stretched our sensors but it’s not quite that simple, because many interests come together. There are different things to be clarified, ” says Klaus Allofs to Kicker.
Arsenal, Inter Milan, Anderlecht and Sporting Lisbon have all been credited with an interest for the 17 - year - old since he put himself in the shop window at the Fifa Under 17s in Chile.
