DBasia.news – Manchester United is rumored to be going into the 2022 summer transfer market in search of a new striker. The Red Devils glanced at Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen. However, the striker’s price is not cheap.
Manchester United is facing one fundamental problem this season. The Red Devils have difficulty scoring goals. Cristiano Ronaldo’s slumped form and the problems that hit other strikers are some of the causes.
Not surprisingly, Ralf Rangnick asked Man United’s management to look for new ammunition on the front lines. Of the many names on the radar, Victor Osimhen is one of them.
The inclusion of Victor Osimhen in Manchester United’s sights is not surprising. The 23-year-old striker has appeared promising this season.
Victor Osimhen is a clinical striker. He scored 11 goals from 22 matches.
In addition, Osimhen averages 7.25 touches in the opponent’s penalty area per 90 minutes. These statistics show that Osimhen is often in the right position when the team is attacking. On the other hand, he is also averaging 4.12 shots per 90 games this season.
Osimhen’s ability is supported by above average physical strength. In addition, the speed of the Nigerian striker is also reliable.
Hearing the news of Manchester United’s interest, Napoli tried to fence off Victor Osimhen. Il Partenopei are confident because the striker is still under contract until 2025.
Calciomercato reports, Napoli put a price of 100 million euros for Victor Osimhen. This value reached Rp. 1.6 trillion. Now, it is questionable whether Manchester United are willing to spend that deep to get the services of Victor Osimhen.
