Italian journalist and popular transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano has claimed reports that Nigerian international, Victor Osimhen has agreed a deal with Liverpool is false.
Some Italian media outlets reported last week that the Premier League giants have agreed personal terms with the prolific Napoli forward.
Reacting to the reports on his social media page, Romano, who is a reliable source for football transfers, said there is no such agreement in place between the Reds and Osimhen.

Speaking via his YouTube page, Romano said: “Chelsea are keeping an eye on Victor Osimhen. In Italy, some media are reporting that Victor Osimhen already agreed contract terms with Liverpool.
“From what I’m told, at the moment, Victor Osimhen has not agreed anything with any club, not even with Napoli, there is no agreement on the contract extension.
“He has not agreed anything with any club so Osimhen will take his time. Reports of an agreement already done with Liverpool are not true.”
Despite attempts by Napoli to clarify what transpired following a recent row between the Nigerian and the Serie A champions, his future is still up in the air.
The 24-year-old was irritated by two TikTok videos posted by the club mocking him after missing a penalty against Bologna.
Napoli recently expressed their displeasure after the striker returned from international duty with an injury last week.
