The Napoli forward has “chosen Manchester United as the team where he wants to continue his career,” despite the club missing next season’s Champions League.
Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has begun negotiations with Manchester United as he eyes a move to Old Trafford this summer.
According to Fichajes, the Napoli forward has “chosen Manchester United as the team where he wants to continue his career,” despite the club missing next season’s Champions League.
At 26, Osimhen appears ready to leave Napoli after a loan spell at Galatasaray, where he “participated in more than 40 goals,” reasserting his reputation as one of Europe’s most prolific forwards.
United’s new manager Rubén Amorim is seeking attacking reinforcements, with Osimhen seen as an ideal fit. “United desperately needs a striker with goal-scoring prowess, leadership, and presence, and Osimhen fits that profile perfectly,” notes Fichajes.
However, financial hurdles remain. “The transaction costs, both in transfer and salary, remain high,” the report adds. Still, United’s advantage is clear: “Osimhen has already made his choice, and the ball is in their court.”
