Manchester United are reportedly on the brink of completing a £51 million move for Napoli’s star striker, Victor Osimhen, as the summer transfer window approaches. This exciting news comes from journalist Aygun Ozipek, who suggests the deal could be finalised at the end of the season.
United’s pursuit of a top-tier forward has been well-documented, with Osimhen now emerging as the front-runner. The Nigerian international, widely regarded as one of the best strikers in Europe’s top leagues, has already agreed to personal terms with the Red Devils. He is set to sign a lucrative five-year contract, reportedly worth £12.5 million per year.
While Chelsea were initially tipped to secure Osimhen’s services earlier in the season, the move fell through after the striker refused to accept a significant pay-cut. With that door closed, United now look to be in pole position to bring the prolific forward to Old Trafford.
Osimhen has been in scintillating form, netting 29 goals during his season-long loan spell at Galatasaray. While his immediate future remains with Napoli, a transfer to Manchester United is all but certain.
As the summer window nears, the prospect of Osimhen donning the iconic United shirt is becoming increasingly likely. Fans will be eagerly watching to see how this high-profile transfer unfolds.
