The player has made his desire to play in the Premier League known but his destination is anyone’s guess with a raft of clubs hoping to lure the red hot centre-forward. A first Serie A title is now a mere formality for Osimhen and company, who are also among the favourites to reach the Champions League final, having been handed a favourable route to the showpiece in Istanbul. It is believed the London club are willing to offer a player plus cash deal to secure the signing of one of European football’s hottest properties.

Victor Osimhen, who plays for Napoli, is looking to take the 'next step' in his career amidst interest from Manchester United.

Erik ten Hag has had to rely on Marcus Rashford to find the back of the net on a consistent basis for the Red Devils. They are also set to face AC Milan in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. United have Anthony Martial and Wout Weghorst as the only two natural strikers in the team as of now. The Partenopei are top of the Serie A table, 19 points ahead of second-placed Lazio. The attacker took a couple of seasons to adjust at the Serie A giants. The 24-year-old recently scored a brace against Torino in the league, taking his tally to

Gabriel has been ever-present in the Gunners' defence this season as they continue their Premier League title race with Manchester City. God is the greatest.”

Manchester United are reportedly hopeful of signing Napoli forward Victor Osimhen this summer transfer window.

He will, however, come attached with a hefty price tag. Osimhen, 24, has already registered 25 goals and five assists so far and will certainly add to his tally before the campaign draws to a close. The Nigerian striker has been exceptional for his side this season and has been pivotal to their outstanding form, which has them 19 points clear on top of Serie A and in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

Chelsea transfer news: Victor Osimhen continues to prove he can be the man to solve the Blues' goalscoring woes as he impressed for Napoli yet again at the ...

Kai Havertz's recent goal scoring form has softened the lack of a number nine, but the problem is still evident. After two games without a goal, Osimhen sent a firm transfer reminder to Boehly showcasing what he is capable of. To complete a repeat of 2021, Chelsea must beat holders Real Madrid in the quarter-finals and then also bypass Manchester City or Bayern Munich. If the Blues do what would likely be considered unthinkable and reclaim their European crown, Todd Boehly will undoubtedly head into the summer market ready to invest millions more into the squad. Overturning an 11-point deficit, with five clubs still between Graham Potter's side and a Champions League qualification spot may mean the club are better off focussing on this season's European campaign. One position Chelsea desperately need to recruit in is attack, with a natural striker one of the priorities.

Victor Osimhen has told Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag ... (Manchester Evening News)

Napoli striker Osimhen is continuing to attract plenty of attention from Man United fans ahead of the summer transfer window.

Speaking earlier this month, Osimhen said: "I think playing in one of the top five leagues in the world (Serie A) is an amazing feeling for me. Osimhen, who joined Napoli from French club Lille in July 2020, is one of the most exciting strikers in Europe and is generating a wave of attention with his eye-catching performances and exploits in front of goal. That should, even though United will have to deal with Napoli and their demands first, make any hopes the Reds might have of signing him this summer that little bit easier. [Manchester United](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/all-about/manchester-united-fc) have earmarked him as a possible candidate to become the new face of their forward line. The Nigerian is establishing himself as one of the most promising and sought-after strikers in Europe. Napoli are now a whopping 19 points clear at the top of the table with just 11 games left to play, meaning they are on course to clinch their first league title since 1990.
