Reports indicate that Manchester United remain determined to secure the signature of Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen from Napoli, despite competition from Paris Saint-Germain.
Italy’s leading pundit on African football matters, Malu Mpasinkatu, revealed that Manchester United is actively working on a deal to acquire Osimhen, amidst rumors of PSG’s interest.
While Napoli striker Osimhen is reportedly close to joining PSG with a lucrative four-year contract offer, United is prepared to challenge for his signature.
Mpasinkatu stated on Radio Goal that United and Chelsea are both vying for Osimhen’s services, indicating a potential bidding war for the 25-year-old striker.
Also, there is speculation that PSG may target Marcus Thuram instead of Mbappe, further fueling United’s pursuit of Osimhen.
With Osimhen eyeing a move to the Premier League, Manchester United is eager to add him to their ranks. Meanwhile, Lille’s Jonathan David is considered a potential replacement for Osimhen, possessing the necessary experience despite his youth.
