Manchester United are interested in signing the Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, and they have made attempts regarding a potential move.
According to a report from Napoli-based publication Corriere del Mezzogiorno, Manchester United have made attempts to sign the player, but there is nothing concrete at the moment.
The player has a release clause of €75 million in his contract, and it will be interesting to see if Manchester United are willing to pay up. The striker was on at Turkish club Galatasaray last season, and he scored 37 goals in all competitions. In comparison, Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee scored a total of 17 goals this past season.

The Nigerian International has been linked with Saudi Arabian clubs as well. He needs to sort out his long-term future, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up eventually. The player does not have a future with the Italian champions, and he will look to Napoli permanently.
Manchester United could be the ideal destination for him. He will prove himself in the Premier League, and they are one of the biggest clubs in the world. Signing the 26-year-old striker would be a huge coup for the Red Devils. He is one of the best attackers in world football, and he could transform them in the attack.
