Manchester United have entered the race to sign Chelsea’s top target for the summer transfer window.
The Red Devils are eyeing a new striker in the summer and Napoli’s Victor Osimhen is on their radar.
The Nigerian has been in superb form for Napoli this term with 19 goals across all competitions.
His form has caught the eye of elite clubs and The Telegraph report that United are now keeping tabs.
The Red Devils are likely to spend big this summer with the prospect of a huge takeover.
Osimhen could be easily affordable for the new owners but the club will no doubt face competition.
Chelsea have Osimhen as their top target for this year and they won’t give up so easily.
One thing in United’s advantage is the fact that the Blues may not offer Champions League football.
While United are flying high in third, the London giants are currently 11 points behind the top four.
This could be a potential setback for Graham Potter’s side if there is a bidding war for Osimhen.
Osimhen is likely to leave Napoli this summer, having refused to rule out his potential exit.
The striker has already stated that it is up to the Naples outfit to decide his future.
Napoli are reportedly prepared to sell him for a fee in the region of 120 million euros.
