La Voix du Nord reports that 20-year-old Nigerian international forward Victor Osimhen is expected to arrive in Northern France today.

He is expected to undergo a medical on Tuesday or Wednesday, before signing a 5-year contract with Les Dogues.

Belgian side Charleroi have accepted a €12m excluding bonuses offer from Lille and the youngster will sign a 5-year contract with LOSC should the medical run smoothly.

Osimhen spent last season on loan at Belgian side Charleroi and the club are interested in keeping the player for another, but it is unlikely that the Felice Mazzu ( head coach) and Mehdi Bayat (manager of Charleroi) are ready to outbid the French side.

Osimhen netted 20 goals in all competitions for Charleroi last season and was part of Super Eagles that won the bronze medal at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.
