Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen is the most sought-after striker in football at the moment.
In the past few months, the 25-year-old has been linked with several elite European clubs, including PSG and Arsenal with the Nigerian highly tipped to join Chelsea because of his admiration for Blues legend Didier Drogba, whom he considers an idol.
Enter Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). The French giants were reportedly ready to meet Osimhen's buyout clause at Napoli and replace the departing Kylian Mbappe with the Nigerian.
However, fresh reports from England suggest that Manchester United are keen to bring Victor Osimhen to Old Trafford this summer transfer window.
The Red Devils are believed to have the financial resources to compete with PSG in meeting Napoli and the player's demands.
Victor Osimhen transfer news: What is his market value?
Osihmen has a reported release clause of €110m (£94m/$119m) and salary demands of £250,000 per week, causing ripples across Europe's elite clubs.
While Chelsea have been deterred by these figures and are exploring other alternatives, PSG are poised to meet these demands and sign him for their roster.
The Nigeria international has netted 13 goals in 22 matches across all competitions for Napoli this season while also providing four assists.
Victor Osimhen transfer would be a savvy move for Manchester United
Under Erik ten Hag's guidance, Manchester United's attacking play has an emphasis on speed and strength.
Victor Osimhen has rapid pace and a direct style which would align seamlessly with this strategy.
His ability to unsettle defences with well-timed runs and take on defenders could bring a new dimension to United's offensive arsenal, creating space for creative teammates like Bruno Fernandes to exploit opponents' weaknesses.
Ten Hag's United employ a dynamic attacking trio that can interchange positions. Osimhen's adaptability allows him to serve as both a lone striker and part of a striking duo.
Teaming up with Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Højlund, Victor Osimhen could offer United a formidable and versatile attacking trio.
Whether leading the line or partnering with another striker, Osimhen's addition could significantly enhance United's offensive options.
