Napoli striker Victor Osimhen is set to undergo medical checks with the Serie A side ahead of their pre-season campaign. The Nigerian forward is widely expected to leave the club this summer, but no deal has been sealed yet.

Despite heavy interest, Osimhen has turned down several offers from Saudi Pro League giants Al Hilal as he remains keen on staying in Europe. The 26-year-old spent last season on loan at Turkish champions Galatasaray, where he impressed with 37 goals and eight assists, helping them clinch both the Super Lig title and the Turkish Cup.

According to reports from Le Marca Sports, Osimhen will return to Napoli for pre-season preparations, with medical tests scheduled for July 14 and 15, which is standard for returning players. Unless a transfer happens before then, he is expected to join Napoli’s pre-season activities.

Fenerbahçe have entered the race to sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, a player Galatasaray are hoping to bring back this summer. Reports from Ekol Sports reveal that Fenerbahçe’s president, Ali Koç, has tabled the highest offer so far to Napoli in an attempt to lure the Nigerian forward to their squad.

Galatasaray, who had Osimhen on loan last season, are also keen to keep him permanently. The 25-year-old played a vital role in their success last season, helping the club secure both the Turkish Cup and the Super Lig title. Although Galatasaray have made their offer, they’re still waiting for Osimhen to make a final decision.

The Super Eagles star is currently on summer break and hasn’t revealed where he plans to play next season. Several top clubs across Europe and beyond are monitoring his situation. Aside from Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray, Juventus, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Saudi giants Al Hilal have all shown interest.

However, sources close to Osimhen say his first option is to rejoin Galatasaray on a permanent deal, but only if a move to one of Europe’s biggest clubs doesn’t materialize during this summer transfer window.

Former Real Madrid legend Luis Figo has shared his top picks for this year’s Ballon d’Or. With the winner set to be announced in September, many names are in the running, but Figo believes three players stand out.

The Portuguese icon pointed to Ousmane Dembele, Lamine Yamal, and Vitinha as his favourites to take home football’s biggest individual honour. “All three had incredible seasons with their clubs,” Figo said in a chat with Sport Bible.

He added, “There are plenty of players who deserve it based on how they performed. But in the end, it depends on what matters more; your individual stats or the trophies you’ve won.” Figo also admitted the final decision is out of his hands, saying, “It’s not up to me, but I personally like players like Lamine, Vitinha, and Dembele; they’ve all been outstanding this season.”
