Spanish La Liga giants Real Madrid are preparing to battle close rivals Barcelona and Atletico Madrid for Victor Osimhen’s services, Soccernet.ng<\/a> reports.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u200bSince the turn of the year, Osimhen has been heavily linked with Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. This is because both teams are planning significant shake-ups in their striker departments.<\/p>\n \u200bBarcelona are looking to sell Ferran Torres and then sign a top striker who Robert Lewandowski will support.<\/p>\n As for Atleti, they might lose Alexander Sorloth and Julian Alvarez in the summer, and they see Osimhen as the best possible replacement.<\/p>\n \u200bHowever, while these clubs are still mulling over a deal, their rivals Real Madrid are looking to step in.<\/p>\n \u200bAccording to Futbol Fichajes, Real Madrid are looking to sign a proper number 9 in the summer. This season, they have struggled across different areas of the pitch, and the attack could do with a major boost.<\/p>\n \u200bGetting Victor Osimhen won’t be an easy task for Real Madrid. The Super Eagles star is currently one of the best strikers in the world, and he has proven his quality in Belgium, France, Italy, and now Turkey. At the international level, he has a healthy goal haul of 35 in 52 games.<\/p>\n \u200bA player of this quality won’t come cheap. Just last year, Galatasaray paid Napoli \u20ac70 million for his services. So, any club that wants his services will have to pay significantly more.<\/p>\n \u200bPrevious reports have suggested that the Turkish giants would demand around \u20ac150 million for the 27-year-old marksman.<\/p>\n \u200bHowever, in a recent study by CIES<\/a>, a platform that analyzes players, the Super Eagles star is actually worth \u20ac104.7 million. For a club like Real Madrid, this is an affordable fee.<\/p>\n![\"Soccer](\"https:\/\/soccernet.ng\/thumbor\/jz0fR4YLRP03qrwpNo4N2Xi-YGQ=\/1024x735\/smart\/https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.soccernet.ng%2Fmain%2F2025%2F10%2Fimago1067111981.jpg\")
