Victor Osimhen Set for Premier League Switch
In the latest Manchester United transfer news, reports indicate that the Red Devils have reached a tentative agreement with Napoli striker Victor Osimhen in preparation for a summer transfer. The Nigerian wonderkid has piqued the interest of the top clubs across Europe, and it appears United are now at the front in securing his signature.
Stellar Season with Galatasaray
Osimhen, who is on loan with Galatasaray, has had an incredible season. The 25-year-old striker has scored 30 goals in 35 matches, helping Galatasaray maintain a five-point lead above Fenerbahce in the Turkish Super Lig. The club has also reached the Turkish Cup final, where they will face either Trabzonspor or Goztepe.
His performance in Turkey has only added to his worth, and many fans believe he is due for a change of pace in the Premier League.
Chelsea Came Close Last Summer
According to earlier Manchester United transfer news, Osimhen had nearly signed with Chelsea at the close of last summer's transfer window. The London club was unable to agree terms with Napoli, and the deal collapsed. That failure has now provided United with the opportunity to make a move of their own.
Manchester United Watching Osimhen for Months
Red Devils have been pursuing Osimhen for some time. Even before the news broke that the striker will leave Napoli, Manchester United transfer news indicated that the team had developed considerable interest in the player. Erik ten Hag is keen to bolster his frontline, and Osimhen is the epitome of an adaptable and talented goal-scorer.
£64 Million Deal Underway
According to Tuttosport, United are engaged in a summer transfer negotiation, with the price expected to be around £64 million. This is consistent with recent Manchester United transfer news, with the club being mentioned time and again as making a move to sign one of the world's top strikers to help their pursuit in domestic and European leagues.
United in Pole Position
With other top European clubs expressing interest, Manchester United transfer news today reveals that United is in the best position to sign Osimhen. Signing him would be a massive addition to United's attack and could be a tipping point for the team's next season fortunes.
