Former Nigeria international Nduka Ugbade says a move to European champions Liverpool will be suitable for Victor Osimhen.
Following an impressive start to life at Ligue 1 club Lille, Osimhen has been linked with a move to some of Premier League’s elite clubs.

The former Wolfsburg striker has scored 12 goals in 23 appearances with four assists in all competitions so far this season.
And commenting on recent reports about a possible move, Ugbade recommends he joins Liverpool.
“Tottenham might be good, Chelsea might be good and Liverpool but I will choose Liverpool with Jürgen Klopp because it’s all about fitness,” Ugbade, a member of the 1994 AFCON winner with the Super Eagles said on Brila FM.
“And the nature of fitness will suit Osimhen a lot better than going to Chelsea and I don’t see Liverpool falling in the next four years.”
Meanwhile Osimhen will not be in action for Lille against Monaco in the league this weekend as he will be rested.
Osimhen was forced off against Monaco in the first half in the League Cup on Tuesday after he felt unwell.
He opened scoring for Lille before going off for Loic Remy who bagged a brace in the game which ended 3-0.

I don’t think Osimhen going to Liverpool is a good idea. Unless Liverpool promise to sell their first two strikers not because osimhen can’t compete with them but because they will consider him as too young and not having experience and premier league experience.these three factors might work against him and by the time he regains momentum, you discover that he has drop in form. So please my beloved Osimhen, any club that needs you, especially premier league but first sell the existing stricker if not they are only trying to bring you to their club and make you rot on the bench. Remember they don’t even want Africa player to make name before. I love you.

@ Elijah. You re a sensible man. That is an honest opinion devoid of any sentiment. As powerful as the USA, despite all provocation from Iran n north Korea, they didn’t just foolishly jump into war with the two minors compared to them, but weighed it carefully and saw it wasn’t gonna be wise idea. Osimene is becoming known all over the world today playing in Lille. Then why sacrifice that just for the sake of playing in so called big clubs.
