Former Super Eagles midfielder, Garba Lawal, shared his opinion about the French club Lille’s €60m price tag placed on Victor Osimhen.
Osimhen, tops the list as the hottest transfer prospect, and it is very likely his stay at Lille would be cut short following his impressive performance in the French Ligue 1 last season.
Even though Les Dogues dropped their asking price for Osimhen from an initial €90m to €60m, Lawal still believes Osimhen is overpriced.
“Lille are asking for €60m because they saw the calibre of clubs asking to sign Osimhen,” Lawal said.
“They wouldn’t have asked for such amount if it was an average team that was willing to sign him because there is no way they could afford it.”
“Take for instance, if it was Aston Villa that was looking for him, would they have placed the €60m price tag on him?
“Lille are very smart, they saw that big clubs in Europe are the ones looking to sign Osimhen and they believe that they can make money from the deal. They see it as their chance to cash in on him, considering the amount they signed him from Charleroi.
“For a player that they signed for €12m and he spent just a season and they are asking for €60m, I think it’s crazy.
