The Napoli wing player who delivered 26 goals in 32 games during the title-winning season of the Napolitans and was named African player of the year before 2023, is currently on loan with the Turkish giants who chase the title this season. United wants to strengthen their attacking options this summer and he could be the first on their shopping list.
Osimhen scored twice on Monday evening against RodeSper to extend the lead of his club at the top of the table to six points. United sent Scouts to view the Nigerian in action while looking for a new striker, despite signing Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee in recent windows that have not made no impression at the club so far.
The 26-year-old has previously talked about his wish to play in England and the Premier League who led to a number of clubs to inform him before he was postponed by his £ 113 million release clause.
“Future in the Premier League? Of course I would like to play it one day, for now I have other plans for my career. When time comes, you know everything. “
If United would offer the impressive attacker, they would have to shorten part of their current team to make money available so that they comply with financial rules. The club may also have to sell or lend one of their existing strikers to make room for its arrival.
