Manchester United’s Summer Pursuit: Victor Osimhen & More
United in talks for Napoli’s prolific striker, potential offloads, and Chelsea rivalry
Manchester United’s interest in Napoli’s Victor Osimhen has intensified, propelled by reports that the Nigerian striker could be available for as low as €30m due to his expiring contract in 2026.
Respected transfer insider Fabrizio Romano has shed light on United’s pursuit, although he has dismissed earlier reports of a deal already been agreed.
There is nothing agreed with any club at the moment, also because for Man United, as we said for Liam Delap, it’s the same for Osimhen and other targets, Man United are waiting to understand about the Europa League, whether they will play Champions League football next season or not.– Fabrizio Romano, via GiveMeSport’s Market Madness podcast
United’s summer transfer plans hinge on their Europa League fate, with Romano stating that United will adjust their budget depending on whether they secure Champions League football next season.
Arsenal competition, potential offloads, and Delap chase
TheRed Devils are keen to strengthen their frontline, with Osimhen among their top targets. However, Arsenal still has the attacker shortlisted, making United’s pursuit all the more pressing.
In a potential clear-out at Old Trafford, United could offload both Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee to fund new signings. Furthermore, they are battling Chelsea for Ipswich star Liam Delap, another striker target.
