Osimhen ‘big possibility’ for United, Arsenal

By Daily Sports Nigeria on June 28, 2024

Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has told Manchester United and Arsenal fans to keep an eye on a potential move for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, who could leave the Italian club this summer transfer window.

Osimhen has previously admitted that a move to the Premier League would be of interest to him at some point in the future, and after a disappointing season with Napoli, it could be time to move on. The Serie A outfit failed to qualify for Champions League football, so they might struggle to keep hold of some of their key stars.

United and Arsenal could both be in the market for a new centre-forward this summer and if Napoli are willing to lower their asking price for Osimhen, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see either club make a move.

Speaking on Playback, Italian reporter Romano has suggested that clubs in England are ‘one to watch’ in the race for Osimhen, particularly Manchester United and Arsenal…

“In this moment of the market, keep an eye also on England, because Osimhen could be a big possibility. If Napoli changes the price of Victor Osimhen, there could be a possibility for other clubs to enter. For example, Manchester United are looking for a striker. We know about Joshua Zirkzee and this battle with Milan, but Arsenal are also looking for a striker. Will they go for a striker? Will they go for a winger? What do they decide to do in terms of plan? Keep an eye on many clubs for Victor Osimhen.”

Signing a new centre-forward could be one of United’s major priorities for the current transfer window. French striker Anthony Martial will leave the club following the expiration of his contract. Rasmus Hojlund is Erik ten Hag’s only recognised senior option through the middle of an attack, and the young international needs cover and competition.

It could be a similar story for the Gunners, who have often utilised Kai Havertz in the striker position despite him playing deeper throughout his career.
