Victor Osimhen Reveals His Dream Club And It's Not Barcelona, Chelsea, Liverpool Or Spurs

Published: January 02, 2020

Lille striker Victor Osimhen has revealed his desire to play for European powerhouse Real Madrid in future.

The Nigeria international is reportedly being chased by Liverpool, Chelsea and Liverpool, and Barcelona have also been credited with an interest in the 2015 U17 World Cup Golden Boot winner.

Osimhen earned a move to Lille last summer after scoring plenty of goals during a loan spell at Sporting Charleroi.

During his time in Belgium, the former Wolfsburg striker provided an insight into how he will decide the next step in his career.

Last season, when Osimhen was asked by Belgian broadcaster RTBF to name his dream club, he answered : "My dream club is Real Madrid. God willing, I will play for them one day .... because in football everything is possible".

In a interview with L'Equipe in November 2019, he reiterated his desire to move to Spain, saying ''I am a big fan of La Liga. It’s my dream to play there".

Lille President Gérard López has stated that he is not willing to sanction the sale of Osimhen in the January transfer window, and it remains to be seen if a monster bid from an interested club could tempt him to part company with his prized jewel.

The Super Eagles star has notched up 17 goals for club and country so far this season.
