Carlo Ancelotti revealed Real Madrid's decision not to pursue Victor Osimhen, focusing instead on Jude Bellingham. Despite Osimhen's success with Napoli, Real Madrid's season proved their strategy effective. Premier League and PSG clubs are now vying for the Nigerian forward.
Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid's head coach, has shed light on the club's decision not to pursue Napoli's prolific striker Victor Osimhen. Despite widespread speculation linking the Nigerian forward with a move to the Spanish giants, particularly following Karim Benzema's departure, Real Madrid opted for a different approach.
In a recent interview with Radio Serie A, Ancelotti revealed that the club believed Jude Bellingham could effectively fill the void left by Benzema. This strategic decision was based on the team's assessment of their needs and long-term plans.
The success of Real Madrid's season, which saw them clinch both the league title and the Champions League, appears to have vindicated their choice. However, Osimhen remains a hot property in the transfer market, with several Premier League clubs, including Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United, reportedly interested in securing his services. French champions PSG are also monitoring the situation, especially in light of Kylian Mbappe's move to Madrid.
As Osimhen prepares to begin preseason training with Napoli, uncertainty surrounds his future. Many speculate that the 25-year-old may not remain with the Italian club for the upcoming 2024/25 Serie A season.
