Oliver Kahn names strikers blocking Bayern Munich from signing Osimhen

Victor Osimhen

Oliver Kahn, the chief executive of Bayern Munich, has listed some players who are preventing the German champion from signing Napoli’s Victor Osimhen.

There have been rumours linking the Super Eagles forward to the German Bundesliga champions.

However, Kahn claimed that despite having options like 21-year-old Joshua Zirkzee and Jean-Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting to take Robert Lewandowski’s place who is now playing for Barcelona, the Bundesliga team is not looking to sign another center-forward during the summer transfer window.

Bayern Munich has also reportedly shown interest in Manchester United’s Cristiano Ronaldo and Tottenham’s Harry Kane.

Napoli President Aurelio de Laurentiis will only sell the Nigeria international for 100 million euros.

Speaking after the German Super Cup final between Bayern and RB Leipzig, Kahn told Bild via Il Napolista, “We will not buy other strikers, this is not discussed.

“We have seen how many opportunities we have had in attack and how many different formations we have been able to field.

“We also still have several options in the current team, there is Zirkzee, there is Choupo-Moting, then the young Mathys Tel, who is training incredibly well at the moment.”
