Complete “dream” The INEOS target was exposed as a star problem. Bullish transfer desire for Man Utd

Even though it will be a challenging deal to execute, one transfer writer claims that Manchester United is still hopeful that they can make a big move for Victor Osimhen this year.

Over the summer of last year, Osimhen was the subject of a lot of speculation. He also held talks with teams from Saudi Arabia, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain. Romelu Lukaku was acquired by Antonio Conte, the manager of Napoli, to take his place.

The centre striker was left adrift at Napoli when Osimhen rejected the Saudis and talks with Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain broke down.

But Osimhen was saved by Galatasaray, who signed him on loan for the duration of the season. Since then, he has made 17 appearances for Galatasaray and scored 13 goals.

As a result of his release clause being lowered from €130 million (£109.7 million / $133.8 million) to €75 million (£63.3 million / $77.2 million), the 26-year-old player has agreed to a new contract with Napoli that will facilitate his removal.

Osimhen has claimed that his next objective is to join one of the most prominent teams in the world, despite rumours that Galatasaray is interested in signing him permanently.

The managers of Manchester United and INEOS would be overjoyed to have Osimhen join their squad as their new striker, according to Ben Jacobs, a writer for TEAMtalk. However, United will have to wait until the summer to finalise negotiations because the Nigerian is adamant about signing a long-term contract.

Even if the release clause has been lowered to €75 million, Manchester United still has its sights set on Victor Osimhen. The financial position is really difficult, nevertheless. “January is a month in which nothing is possible,” Jacobs told The United Stand.

Although it might sound strange, Osimhen hasn’t changed his opinions on anything. He still hopes that his next move will be a long-term one.

The fact that the player “nearly joined Chelsea, nearly joined Saudi, didn’t get either, went temporarily went to Turkey” hasn’t made him think about the possibilities of taking a loan with an option.

Victor Osimhen indicates that he is willing to sign him permanently by saying, “If you want me, you sign me permanently, whether at that €75 million release clause or a different package like a loan with an obligation.”

In addition, Manchester United might find the £250,000 weekly salary to be too much to bear.

This brings to mind the period when they had an idealistic desire for Harry Kane but were unable to have him in a practical or economical sense. This resulted from Daniel Levy, the chairman of Tottenham, not giving them the same financial resources or agreement that Bayern Munich did.

However, they might spend the summer looking into that (Osimhen). For the most part, everything will depend on what kind of deal Napoli is ready to offer and whether Osimhen changes his mind about going on loan with an option to Manchester United.

On the other side, Victor Osimhen received an offer from Manchester United prior to moving to Napoli. Odion Ighalo happened to be at the club at that time. “Is this the right move for me?” he asked Ighalo as he approached.

“No, you won’t get the pathways that are necessary because you’ll be too far down the pecking order,” Ighalo replied. Even though Osimhen was quite close to joining Manchester United before to his move to Napoli, he ultimately decided to switch to the city. Stated differently, the connections have existed for a long time.

United needs to make a big striker decision.

Even though Rasmus Hojlund is still a young player and need help, he has a lot of potential as a striker for United. Joshua Zirkzee, a backup striker, has made the decision to stay at Old Trafford for the rest of this month despite having a challenging start to his career in England.

United has been attempting to secure a loan deal for Paris Saint-Germain attacker Randal Kolo Muani, even though he is currently close to joining Juventus.

United must decide whether to wait until the summer and make a serious attempt to sign Osimhen or to support Ruben Amorim by adding a striker at a modest cost in January.

United might be able to match Osimhen’s departure clause if they were to sell players like Casemiro, Alejandro Garnacho, and Marcus Rashford. Even though the Red Devils are playing closer to their PSR maximum, this is still the case.

Garnacho is an update, and Rashford is a surprise for Manchester United.

The Rashford story has taken yet another turn. AC Milan might now find it tough to pay for his loan transfer.

Prior to the signing, Milan had agreed to sell Noah Okafor to RB Leipzig in order to make room on their payroll for Rashford.

However, Okafor will now return to Italy after failing a medical test, raising significant doubts about Milan’s ability to get Rashford.

Rashford is not the only winger who could leave Manchester United soon; Garnacho is another possible transfer target.

Conte is leading Napoli’s pursuit of Garnacho, who would take Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s place as he heads to Paris Saint-Germain, according to TEAMtalk.

Although other websites have stated that Garnacho would be sold for €50 million (£42.2 million or $51.5 million), insiders have told TEAMtalk that his true asking price is €70 million (£59.1 million or $72 million).
