Lille have moved to replace Nicolas Pepe with Nigerian forward, Victor Osimhen, Footmercato reports.
The fee for Osimhen is believed to be €14million in total – €12million upfront and €12million in add-ons.
Osimhen scored 19 goals in 34 league appearances last season for Sporting Charleroi.
The 20-year-old was part of the Super Eagles squad that won bronze at this year’s Africa Cup Nations in Egypt.
Although he featured in only the third-place playoff, Osimhen has impressed the Ligue 1 club enough and will be wearing their colours in the next campaign.
