Transfer: Manchester United make u-turn on Osimhen interest

Manchester United are concerned about Victor Osimhen’s lack of Premier League experience and injury record as they step up their chase for a new striker.

The Red Devils are one of the clubs interested in the Napoli striker following his exemplary displays for the Partenopei.

Osimhen has scored 28 goals in all competitions for Luciano Spalletti’s side this season.

According to Football Insider, United have ended their interest in the Nigeria international because he has not proven himself in the Premier League.

The forward’s injury record is also a source of concern to Manchester United.

Osimhen, who moved to Napoli from Ligue 1 club, Lille in 2020, has always missed a chunk of the season due to injury.
