Liverpool Boss “jurgen Klopp” Steps Up Pursuit Of Transfer Target Victor Osimhen by Generalgurus(m): 12:10pm On Dec 29, 2019
Liverpool are stepping up their interest in Lille striker Victor Osimhen.



Osimhen has scored 13 goals in Ligue 1 so far this season, and Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has reportedly ordered detailed scouting reports on the Nigerian forward.

The 21-year-old netted 20 goals for Belgian side Charleroi last season while on loan from Wolfsburg, and has continued his scoring form in this campaign.

According to The Express , Lille have accepted that it is only a matter of time before they are forced to cash in on Osimhen.

However the French side will not entertain bids in January, meaning Klopp will have to wait until the summer if he wants to land his man.

Osimhen penned a five-year deal when he joined Lille in the summer and may well command a huge fee to seal a Premier League move.

Klopp is believed to be keen on bolstering his attacking ranks, with Jadon Sancho and Kylian Mbappe both linked with Anfield switches.

Liverpool are one of several clubs reported to have an interest in Mbappe, who appears keen on a move from PSG to Real Madrid .

Mbappe helped France win the 2018 World Cup - but Liverpool have not had a French international on their books since 2017.



Manchester United paid a then world-record £89million to Juventus for World Cup winner Paul Pogba in 2016, while last summer Antoine Griezmann joined Barcelona from Atletico Madrid for £108m.

However Reds boss Klopp said the calibre of French player Liverpool would require simply costs too much money.

When asked why there was no France stars in his team, Klopp told Canal+: "There is no reason for it.

"Kylian plays for PSG. Griezmann wanted to go to Barcelona obviously - we know how good that team is.

"We would like to have a French player, but some of them are too expensive for us."

Liverpool can't even bid for mbappe unless he is coming on a free transfer. Both his wage and market value will too much for Liverpool to shoulder
