Lille Resigned To Losing Spurs, Napoli Target Osimhen; Super Eagle Resumes Training Next Week
Published: June 19, 2020
Speaking to reporters at Friday's press conference, Lille coach Christophe Galtier has admitted that Nigeria international Victor Moses is certain to depart the French Ligue 1 club in the summer transfer window.
Tottenham Hotspur are among the Premier League clubs interested in signing Osimhen but face competition from Italian clubs led by Napoli, while talks of a move to La Liga have cooled down in recent weeks.
The Super Eagles star has yet to resume pre-season training with Lille as he was granted compassionate leave to attend the funeral of his father.
"Regarding Victor and Gabriel, yes I integrated it, for a long time, that they are leaving, and we are working on players, who are currently here and who will arrive, likely to replace them," Galtier stated.
The French football tactician revealed that Osimhen is expected to resume training next week.
"Regarding Yusuf Yazici and Timothy Weah, they are not yet fully integrated into all the exercises we do. We take advantage of this first week to test and evaluate them. They have an individual program. As for Victor Osimhen, he will return around June 24 or 25," he said.
Osimhen ended the 2019-2020 campaign as Lille's top scorer in all competitions with 18 goals to his name in 38 games.
