Osimhen Set For 5-year Deal Worth N109.140BN With Manchester United

Nigeria striking sensation, Victor Osimhen will reportedly sign a five-year Manchester United deal in the coming weeks with the Old Trafford side to pay a yearly salary worth £12.8m.

The Nigerian international boasts a stunning 143 career goals in 257 appearances, including 29 goals – and a further six assists – in only 34 appearances this term.

And his performance has not gone unnoticed as several teams including Chelsea, Juventus and Manchester United and Real Madrid jostling to hook the Napoli loanee striker.

Osimhen remains a Galatasaray player until the end of the season but Manchester United appears to have shown the strongest interest yet.

Osimhen has long been linked with an Old Trafford switch over the years, primarily because he poses as a direct solution to their flagrant goalscoring woes.

When a move to Al Ahli collapsed in the final stages, Osimhen signed for Galatasaray with no buy option included in the terms. As such, he now has only two months remaining in Turkey before he’ll have to return to Napoli and hold some pretty crucial talks over his next steps.

However, it will not be a surprise if United were actually hot in pursuit of Osimhen, and that’s certainly what recent speculation would have you believe.

Turkish journalist Aygun Ozipek claims the 26-year-old has agreed a five-year deal with the Red Devils for a fee of £51 million, with the player said to have negotiated a salary worth £12.8m a year.

Another Istanbul-based reporter, Ahmet Konanc, simply stated on X/Twitter: “Osimhen signs with Manchester United.”
