Man United are in need of a new and clinical striker. They have been linked with multiple number nines across whole Europe. As per the latest reports, they have added a Nigerian striker to their wishlist.
Manchester United managed to scored only 44 goals in Premier League this season. This has costed them very much. They finished on 15th position and will miss all European competitions. As a result, Ruben Amorim has made it his top priority to solve this issue.
United are set to land a new striker this summer. They are ready to sell both Hojlund and Zirkzee. Both of these strikers have failed to impress ever since moving to England. They are linked with a move back to Serie A. Instead, the Red Devils are keen to sign another striker from Italian club.
Man United have sights set on Nigerian striker
The star in question here is Victor Osimhen. According to Manchester Evening News, United are showing strong interest in both Osimhen and Gyokeres. Osimhen has been linked with move to Premier League multiple times and is keen to join an English club.
Gyokeres is also wanted by Arsenal. Gunners will have lead in race as they have UCL football. This makes Osimhen a top contender to sign for United. In addition, Napoli are pushing to sell the Nigerian as they don’t rate him anymore.
Osimhen will cost €75 million this summer. He is worth every penny and he has shown that on multiple occasions. The striker was on loan at Galatasaray recently for whom he scored 37 goals along with 7 assists in 41 games.
Osimhen was wanted by Al Hilal recently. They offered his wages of around €30 million annually. But, the striker has rejected the offer as he wants to play in Europe. Hence, this will be viewed as a boost by Man United who are one of the biggest clubs in the whole world.
