According to Fabrizio Romano’s exclusive article in his GIVEMESPORT transfer newsletter, Manchester United has uncovered Victor Osimhen’s demands regarding a possible transfer to Old Trafford. The Nigerian forward wants to join the Red Devils and is willing to pay around £200,000 per week.
Rasmus Hojlund has only managed four Premier League goals this season, and his rival Joshua Zirkzee hasn’t fared any better, tallying just three. United’s striking problems have been evident throughout the season, necessitating the need for improvements.
During his tenure at Sporting, Ruben Amorim relied on Viktor Gyokeres to score goals. The Swede scored 95 goals and provided 27 assists in just 98 games for the Portuguese team. He will be searching for a striker with comparable stats to lead his line at Old Trafford.
Because Osimhen is expected to leave Napoli this summer after spending the season on loan at Turkish powerhouse Galatasaray, he has consequently been linked to a move.
Osimhen Wants Napoli Wage to Make Man Utd Move Work
However, INEOS is unwilling to pay the 26-year-old around £300,000 per week to sign on the dotted lines because they want to reduce United’s excessive wage bill, as The Peoples Person recently reported.
Al-Hilal was one of the teams willing to pay Osimhen a lot of money to join the Saudi Pro League, which is why his camp was apparently considering a move. The Napoli star, however, has since told Givemesport that these rumors are untrue and that he is willing to take little less than £200,000 a week.
Mason Mount’s weekly salary of £250,000 should ideally allow the new co-owners to meet Osimhen’s demands without any issues. He only wants his current salary—roughly €12 million net, or £10.2 million annually—to be honored. similar to a year ago.
United will be well aware of his ability to score goals, and a lucky strike could help them advance into the European spots after they haven’t done so in the league the previous two seasons.
