I think Osimhen could be an important name for Manchester United. Manchester United still has shortcomings in the attacking area. The Nigerian striker could be a significant advantage to overcome these shortcomings. Of course, it is important whether Osimhen wants to play for Manchester United. Because there are other teams that want to get him. As far as I remember, he came close to signing with Chelsea. Maybe Chelsea will want to transfer him again. In this case, the Nigerian footballer may get confused.
After what transpired between Chelsea and Victor Osimhen at the begining of this season, I don't think he would like to play for them again. Osimhen is an elite striker and as such will be in high demand when the transfer window opens officially in January. I think it would be a smart move for Manchester United to sign Osimhen. If the club decide to sign him he will add more power to their attack and can become the secret weapon that Ruben Amorim needs to kickstart his career in Manchester United.
I have to say, it is not really about Chelsea, it was Napoli who wanted more and that's why Osimhen cut ties with Napoli, he is not even playing for them anymore, and forced his release clause to drop down as well.
Chelsea wanted to get him, and would love to get him, but the fact is simple that they are not getting him at all due to price, and now that the price is down, I am sure they would love to get him, but looking at how they already have a decent striker, I can understand why they may not do that. Zirkzee is the issue with United, lets assume that they sold Hojlund, that's understandable, and get Osimhen, what are they going to do with Zirkzee?
They have way too many mediocre players they paid too much money for, they have to switch their mindset, and go for stars and pay a ton of money on superstars and stop buying these type of players. They can't just get Yoro, Zirkzee, Ugarda and Mazraoui and assume that all will be fine. They spent 170 million or so for these players, 170! I guarantee you, if they just got Osimhen instead of any of these, and kept last years team plus Osimhen, even that would have been better. They have to stop getting these 40-50 million range players, and look to spend 100 million or so, get superstars.
