Julian
RB Leipzig coach Julian Nagelsmann revealed that the German Bundesliga club were interested in Victor Osimhen services last summer but were priced out of a deal for the Nigeria international due to high price demand, BSNSports.com.ng reports.
Italian Serie A club Napoli eventually bid well for Osimhen's signature, with the Naples outfit signing the former OSC Lille stiker for an initial transfer fee of 70 million euros.
 
"Victor Osimhen [...] was once in conversation, then he moved from Lille to Naples for over 60 million," Nagelsmann said to Kicker via Fussballtransfers.
 
“There is a financial framework that we have and all strikers who guarantee a lot of goals cost upwards of 50 million euros. You have to be honest, that was just too much for us, " says Nagelsmann, who says of Alexander Sörloth: " Alex met very reliably at Trabzonspor, we are working with him to ensure that he comes there too.
