Victor Osimhen Set to Join Manchester United in Summer Transfer, Reports Claim

Manchester United are reportedly set to sign Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen this summer, with an agreement already in place, according to Africa Foot. The 26-year-old, currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, has allegedly agreed to personal terms with the Red Devils, sparking excitement among fans eager for a proven goalscorer. Osimhen has been in scintillating form, netting 29 goals in 34 appearances for Galatasaray this season, a stark contrast to United’s struggling forwards.

The transfer rumor comes as United aim to revamp their attack, with Rasmus Hojlund enduring a 16-match Premier League goal drought as of December 2024, and Joshua Zirkzee sidelined by a hamstring injury that may rule him out for the season. However, skepticism surrounds the report due to Africa Foot's limited credibility as a source. Additionally, Osimhen’s €75 million release clause with Napoli remains a significant hurdle, and while Galatasaray struggles to meet his €15 million salary demand, no confirmed reduction in the clause has been verified.

If the deal materializes, Osimhen could be the answer to United’s attacking woes, bringing his lethal finishing to Old Trafford. Fans await official confirmation as the summer window approaches.
