A new and intriguing transfer rumor has emerged regarding Galatasaray’s star, Victor Osimhen. Reports suggest that Manchester United is preparing to make a player swap offer to Napoli for the Nigerian forward.
Since joining Galatasaray on loan from Napoli in September, Osimhen has impressed with his remarkable performances, quickly becoming a fan favorite.
The 24-year-old has played 30 matches for the Turkish club across all competitions this season, scoring 26 goals and providing 5 assists, making a significant impact.
While his future remains uncertain, the number of clubs interested in Osimhen is steadily increasing.
Swap deal with cash offer for Victor Osimhen
According to recent reports in the British press, Manchester United has become particularly persistent in their pursuit of Osimhen. The English club is said to be preparing a deal in which they would offer Rasmus Hojlund along with a cash sum in exchange for Osimhen.
The potential deal is reportedly gaining momentum because of Napoli manager Antonio Conte’s admiration for Hojlund, with some suggesting that the transfer could be nearing completion.
Departure expected
It is also known that Hojlund is among the players that Benfica manager Ruben Amorim intends to part ways with this summer, further adding weight to the possibility of a move.
As the transfer rumors swirl, it remains to be seen whether Osimhen will stay with Galatasaray or make a return to Napoli, where he has already become a hot commodity in the European transfer market.
