Kahn Questions Osimhen’s €150m Price Tag

Legendary German and Bayern Munich goalkeeper Oliver has questioned the €150m price tag on Victor by Napoli.

Osimhen has been attracting interest from some of Europe’s top sides, thanks to his impressive campaign which helped Napoli clinch a first Serie A title in 33 years.

The Super Eagles striker has scored 23 goals this season, in addition to five goals in six Champions League appearances, making him one of the most lethal strikers in Europe’s top five leagues.

But there are indications that Bayern are considering withdrawing from the running and moving for Eintracht Frankfurt forward Randal Kolo Muani instead, with France’s World Cup star said to available for a smaller fee than Osimhen.

And Bayern chief Kahn has only fuelled speculation they could pull out of the race for Osimhen by questioning the €150m value placed on him by Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis.

“When it’s about such a fee, we have to ask the question: does the player give you a guarantee for this money?” Kahn told SportBILD. “That would definitely be a big risk.”

Kahn did confirm that Bayern are considering the possibility to sign a striker this summer.

However, he pointed to their failure to land Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund last summer as an indication that the Bavarian outfit won’t break the bank to capture Osimhen.

“We tried everything for Haaland and went to our financial limits,” he added.

“In the end we had to decide: do we want to break our wage structure? We weren’t ready for that. That’s not Bayern-like.”
