Manchester United are still in the mix to sign Napoli star Victor Osimhen in the summer window.
The striker was instrumental in the Serie A side’s title winning season, scoring 26 goals and registering five assists from 32 league games. His fine form has drawn interest from the Red Devils and other clubs.
According to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, Manchester United are planning to have a meeting with the 24-year-old’s entourage next week. The player’s priority is to make a switch to the Premier League.
Tavolieri says that apart from Erik ten Hag’s side, Chelsea and Liverpool are also in the picture for him. The three clubs should make their intention clear during the meetings next week.
Manchester United or any other club that want to sign the former Lille man in this window must be ready to spend big.
