Man Utd Get Good News as Juventus, PSG-Linked Attacker Desires Old Trafford Switch | OneFootball

PSG have been tracking Victor Osimhen for over a year, and with the summer transfer window approaching, speculation about the Napoli striker’s next move is ramping up.

GIVE ME SPORT previously reported that Manchester United are growing increasingly concerned about PSG’s pursuit of the 26-year-old, with the French club now seen as the frontrunner to sign him. The report adds that PSG are prepared to trigger Osimhen’s £63 million release clause and meet his wage demands, making them a serious contender in the race.

Meanwhile, Fichajes reported that Saudi giants Al-Hilal have made a massive push to lure Osimhen. They’ve tabled a three-year offer—with an option for a fourth—worth €160 million net in salary, raising their annual proposal to €40 million, nearly quadruple what the Nigerian currently earns at Napoli. Al-Hilal, looking to bolster Simone Inzaghi’s squad, are also targeting AC Milan left back Theo Hernández.

Despite the big-money Saudi offer, Fichajes reported on Friday that Osimhen has made his preference clear: he wants to join Manchester United. The striker has reportedly ruled out staying at Napoli and is open to being part of the new project under Rubén Amorim, even without Champions League football next season.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, United remain firmly in the mix. The Italian outlet describes the club as having a “burning magnetism” in their pursuit of Osimhen and still believe they can land him despite their European absence. Juventus have also entered the race, while Al-Hilal—despite previously being turned down—remain in the picture with their offer still standing.

Galatasaray, too, are hoping to bring Osimhen in on a permanent deal after his loan stint in Istanbul, though they appear to be long shots in a crowded field of suitors.
