Victor Osimhen of Napoli will cost English Premier League team Manchester United £140 million to acquire this summer.
The Nigerian international has become United’s top target as a result of his outstanding performance for the Serie A champions this season.
The Nigerian has been chosen by the Red Devils as the attack’s next season’s captain, according to The Mirror, who claims that the club sent scouts to watch Napoli’s Champions League match against Milan last month.
The 24-year-old is now leading the Italian Serie A goal scorers list with 23 goals, three more than Lautaro Martinez of Inter Milan, who is in second place with 20 goals, and is having one of the greatest seasons of his career with Napoli this season.
Osimhen’s teammate Kim, 26, already seems destined for Old Trafford despite only moving to Naples last year.
A deal for Kim is said by Naples-based Il Mattino to be in place with the player having no doubts about joining United.
With that almost sealed, Man United believed they could push for Osimhen whom Napoli do not consider as one of their ‘untouchable’ players, according to the Mirror.
