Manchester United are preparing a major offer to sign Napoli’s star striker, Victor Osimhen, this summer. In addition, the Red Devils are keen to bolster their attack and have identified Osimhen as a perfect fit for their tactical needs under manager Ruben Amorim.
According to Fichajes, United are ready to make a “considerable” bid to convince Napoli to part with the Nigerian forward. This move comes as part of their ongoing efforts to strengthen their squad for the future.
Osimhen’s impressive performances in the Turkish Super Lig this season have only increased his appeal. Indeed, the striker, currently on loan at Galatasaray, has scored 28 goals and provided five assists in 32 appearances across all competitions.
Furthermore, Galatasaray, aware of the intense Premier League interest, understands that they stand little chance of keeping the striker. Consequently, Osimhen’s future in Turkey looks uncertain.
The 25-year-old’s power, mobility, and finishing ability have earned him recognition as one of the best in the world. Moreover, his ability to perform in high-pressure situations only adds to his value.
Osimhen’s eye-catching form includes a brace against Tottenham in November during Galatasaray’s 3-2 win. Notably, this performance against a Premier League side showcased his potential at the highest level.
With only one year left on his contract with Napoli, the time is now for the striker to make his move to a new club. Therefore, United are eager to complete a deal quickly to secure his services.
Along with Osimhen, United are reportedly considering other striker options, including Ipswich Town’s Liam Delap, with his £40m release clause attracting attention. In any case, Osimhen remains one of the top targets for the summer window.
