“They’re working hard with us in the meantime. We’re working on the players who are currently here and those likely to replace them. Of course, the club is working to replace him [Osimhen].” Osimhen’s superb season for Lille has made him one of the most sought-after young attackers in Europe, with clubs in France, Italy and England interested in the 21-year-old.
