Manchester United are reportedly eyeing a striker to bolster their attacking options after an underwhelming 2024/25 campaign.
With Anthony Martial set to leave and Rasmus Højlund still developing, the Red Devils are in the market for a proven finisher. Osimhen’s proven scoring record in Serie A and physical playing style make him a prime target.
