Manchester Unitedare looking to strengthentheir center-forward options this summer, and journalist Laurie Whitwell hasn’t ruled out the possibility of a swap deal involving Alejandro Garnacho for Osimhen.
On the Inside United podcast, Whitwell shared that Manchester United are keen on bringing Osimhen to Old Trafford.With Napoli previously showing interest in Garnacho, a swap deal could be on the table.
“In terms of what they want from a striker, I think Osimhen would fit that bill,” Whitwell said (h/tGIVE ME SPORT).
“So I wonder what happens there. The only thing is, Napoli, how much would they want for him? And would some kind of transfer swap make some kind of sense? Obviously, they’ve been interested in Alejandro Garnacho already. I wouldn’t rule out something like that potentially happening.”
