Man United offer Hojlund plus cash for Osimhen

Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

The Red Devils are said to be preparing Rasmus Hojlund plus cash offer for the 25-year-old Nigerian international.

Osimhen has been linked with several top clubs in recent months, including Chelsea, Arsenal, and PSG.

However, a report from CalcioNapoli24 suggests United are actively pursuing his signature.

The proposed deal would involve United offering cash alongside striker Rasmus Hojlund to Napoli.

Hojlund impressed in his debut season at Old Trafford, raising questions about his potential departure.

Despite being Napoli’s top scorer for the past two seasons, including their Serie A title win in 2022/23, the Italian giants seem open to selling Osimhen this summer.

With his talent proven in Italy, Osimhen may be looking for a new challenge, with the Premier League a possible destination.

While reports indicate Napoli expect offers from clubs like United, Chelsea, and PSG, no official bids have been made yet according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Additionally, Napoli reportedly rejected a hefty €200 million offer for Osimhen from a Saudi Arabian team last summer.

Osimhen, signed by Napoli from Lille in 2020 for €75 million, has established himself as one of the most exciting young strikers in world football. It remains to be seen if Manchester United’s reported offer will be enough to convince Napoli to part ways with their star player.
