Amazing news hits Manchester United as the club have reportedly struck a deal with Victor Osimhen, and supporters are absolutely ecstatic – watch the scenes unfold in the video!

Manchester United Prioritise Striker Signing Amid Hojlund Struggles

Manchester United are expected to make the acquisition of a new striker their top priority in the upcoming transfer window, largely due to Rasmus Hojlund’s underwhelming performances this season.

The Danish forward has only managed to find the net three times in the Premier League, and his overall contribution on the pitch has fallen short of expectations. As a result, head coach Ruben Amorim is reportedly looking to move the striker on this summer.

At first, Amorim expressed interest in bringing Viktor Gyokeres to Old Trafford. However, the Sporting CP star is intent on joining a Champions League club—something United may not be able to offer next season.

Osimhen Emerges as Top Target

Attention quickly turned to Victor Osimhen, who is believed to be open to joining United even if the club fails to win the Europa League. The Nigerian forward’s salary expectations were initially seen as a potential stumbling block, which opened the door to interest from Saudi clubs and saw Chelsea withdraw from the race.

However, there’s now a major breakthrough. Turkish journalist Serdar Ali Çelikler has revealed that Manchester United have successfully agreed personal terms with the Napoli striker. The only hurdle remaining is the transfer fee between the two clubs.

“Victor Osimhen has reached an agreement with Manchester United,” Çelikler revealed on a recent podcast. “Now the focus is on negotiations between the clubs.”

Napoli Willing to Negotiate

While Osimhen’s current release clause sits at €75 million, Napoli are reportedly open to negotiating a slightly reduced fee. Juventus have also been monitoring the player, but Napoli are unwilling to sell to a domestic rival, which gives United a clear advantage.

Though Galatasaray—where Osimhen is currently on loan—hope to retain him, they’re unlikely to compete financially with United. So far this season, Osimhen has delivered an impressive 29 goals and 6 assists in 34 appearances across all competitions.

This update will surely please Amorim, though finalizing the deal could hinge on United’s European performance. To cover all bases, the club has lined up contingency plans, with names like Liam Delap and Jean-Philippe Mateta also under consideration should the Osimhen deal fall through.
