Lille have completed the signing of Victor Osimhen from Belgian First Division A club Sporting Charleroi.
Osimhen penned a five-year deal that will keep him at the Stade Pierre Mauroy until 2024.
The move is the 20-year-old’s second transfer this summer after Sporting Charleroi permanently signed him from Wolfsburg in June.
During his loan spell in Belgium last season, Osimhen scored 20 goals in 36 matches across all competitions for the Zebras.
Before the imminent exit of Nicolas Pepe and Rafael Leao, the Ligue 1 outfit moved for the 2015 Fifa U17 World Cup winner to boost their attacking strength ahead of the new season.
