Manchester United are gearing up for what is expected to be a busy transfer window under the guidance of Ruben Amorim and the Ineos regime.
After another inconsistent campaign, the Red Devils have shown clear intent to rebuild with purpose, identifying key areas needing immediate reinforcement.
A new striker remains high on the club’s agenda, especially as the pressure mounts on Rasmus Hojlund, who has yet to establish himself as a consistent threat in front of goal.
While several emerging talents have been monitored, United appear to be leaning toward a more experienced and proven option to lead their attack next season.
The hunt for a ready-made goal scorer is officially underway, and all eyes are turning to Serie A, where a powerhouse forward could soon be on the move.
Victor Osimhen eyes Premier League move
Manchester United are exploring the possibility of signing Victor Osimhen as they seek to revolutionise their attacking department and bring world-class quality back to the front line.
The Napoli forward is believed to be at the top of the shortlist as Amorim and Jason Wilcox look to reshape the squad with immediate-impact players, particularly up top where goals have been scarce.
ESPN reports that the Nigerian striker is open to a move to the Premier League and Juventus and has long admired the English game, potentially giving United the edge over competitors.
Victor Osimhen is expected to return from his loan spell at Galatasaray where he’s posted an extraordinary tally of 28 goals in 32 appearances, further cementing his reputation as one of Europe’s elite marksmen.
Although Galatasaray are unable to make the move permanent, Napoli are preparing to cash in on the striker this summer, with a reported asking price of €65 million.
United face strong competition from Chelsea and Arsenal, both of whom are also actively seeking a new striker, but Amorim’s presence and the potential to lead the line at Old Trafford could be major drawcards.
One obstacle that remains is Osimhen’s wage demand, reportedly around £180,000 per week, which would need to be balanced against Ineos’ desire to reduce the club’s bloated wage bill.
Deliberations continue behind the scenes as United also weigh up alternatives, including Delap and Gyokeres, but Victor Osimhen remains the marquee option—one capable of transforming their fortunes overnight.
Whether or not they can strike a deal, Manchester United are clearly serious about finding the right forward this summer—and they may be ready to go big to do it.
