According to United Chronicle, the intermediaries of Manchester United are working on getting the 24 years old Nigerian and Napoli forward Victor Osimhen, who Napoli now values at €160m, to Old Trafford amid the strong interest of the incoming Chelsea Manager Mauricio Pochettino to get a natural No. 9 to spearhead the team next season.
Osimhen, despite his injury woes this season, has contributed to 27 goals in 29 matches, that is, 23 goals and 4 assists in Seria A, a scintillating form for a forward in the Europe top 5 Leagues. On the other hand, Manchester United has accrued a total of 51 goals in 35 matches in EPL.
While the statistics of his goal-scoring prowess will surely boost any team, especially the current Manchester United team, the worrying question is, how will he perform in the team with the current crop of players?
The major reason, as stated by football fans is that the wingers and midfielders who will selflessly cross the ball over to Osimhen in the current Man United team are minimal, unlike in the Napoli team where the team is built around him with the pivotal selfless services of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Can Victor Osimhen thrive in this current Manchester United team of players?
