Osimhen rejects Juventus move, dealing them major blow

Posted : 22 May 2025

Cristiano Giuntoli, now in charge of Juventus’ sporting operations, is reportedly eager to reunite with Victor Osimhen, aiming to bring the Nigerian striker to Turin this summer. Giuntoli played a central role in Osimhen’s arrival at Napoli and is said to still have a strong relationship with the player’s representatives.


During his time at Napoli, Giuntoli oversaw Osimhen’s progression, including the forward’s impactful loan stint with Galatasaray this season. Impressed by his development and attacking qualities, Giuntoli sees Osimhen as the perfect fit to lead Juventus’ frontline in the upcoming campaign.


With his blistering speed, physical strength, and clinical finishing, Osimhen is widely seen as one of Europe’s elite forwards. Giuntoli has made acquiring the striker a major focus of Juventus’ summer recruitment efforts, believing he could significantly enhance the team’s attacking threat.


However, those plans have taken a hit. Despite earlier indications that Osimhen might consider a move to Juventus, recent reports from Football Italia suggest that the Super Eagles star has turned down the opportunity to join the Turin giants. His decision is a major blow to Giuntoli’s hopes, especially given their past connection at Napoli.


Osimhen’s refusal to join Juventus has reignited talk of a possible move to the Premier League. Clubs like Chelsea and Arsenal are reportedly keeping a close watch, both keen to add firepower to their squads ahead of the new season. The striker’s skill set and goal-scoring instincts make him a natural fit for top-tier English football.


Despite Juventus missing out, Osimhen’s stock remains high. His performances this season have been impressive, and many analysts view him as a more complete forward compared to Dusan Vlahovic, Juventus’ current attacking spearhead. Osimhen’s dynamic presence could become a defining asset for any top European team.


While a switch to Juventus appears unlikely at this stage, the summer transfer market is still full of possibilities. As interest from England continues to grow, all signs point toward Osimhen’s next chapter taking place in the Premier League rather than a return to Serie A.
