Manchester United Proposes Player Plus Cash Deal for Napoli’s Victor Osimhen

Manchester United is reportedly eager to secure the services of Victor Osimhen from Napoli this summer.

The 25-year-old Nigerian striker has attracted interest from several clubs, including Chelsea, but according to CalcioNapoli24, Manchester United has entered the fray with a proposal involving both cash and player exchange.

United has put forward a deal that includes offering Rasmus Hojlund as part of the package to acquire Osimhen. Hojlund, who joined United last season and impressed during his debut campaign, is seen as a promising talent with a bright future at the club.

The potential departure of Hojlund would come as a surprise given his early impact, but acquiring Osimhen could significantly bolster United’s attacking prowess. Osimhen, known for his prolific scoring ability, contributed 17 goals across all competitions for Napoli last season and played a crucial role in their Serie A success in 2022/23.

As United seeks to strengthen their forward line, Osimhen’s proven track record in Italian football and potential move to the Premier League could offer an enticing new challenge for the Nigerian international.

Negotiations between Manchester United and Napoli are ongoing, with the Red Devils hoping their proposal will persuade Napoli to part ways with Osimhen this transfer window.
