Victor Osimhen NOT wanted by Man Utd as identity of top attacking transfer targets are revealed

<p>The Red Devils are in the market for more firepower after seeing <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-utd-best-worst-strikers-premier-league-era-ranked-rasmus-hojlund-cristiano-ronaldo-ruud-van-nistelrooy/bltb7d940d705e0c7e2" target="_blank">Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee fail to convince</a> when being asked to lead the line in 2024-25. Plans are being drawn up at Old Trafford for the summer window.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Funds are available for notable additions, without the need for sales to be sanctioned, and United are confident that they can still attract some big names. Osimhen will not be among those.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>That is despite the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/victor-osimhen-transformational-signing-man-utd-red-devils-transfer-perfect-nigeria-international-striker/blt5821050b99ef0b53" target="_blank">Nigeria international being a proven goalscorer at the highest level</a> and a player expected to be on the move over the coming months after enjoying a productive loan spell at Turkish side Galatasaray from Serie A title hopefuls Napoli.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Discussing the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-utd-double-deal-matheus-cunha-liam-delap-transfers-swap-victor-osimhen/blt7f753724e8b43635" target="_blank">Red Devils’ recruitment drive</a>, transfer expert David Ornstein told <a href="https://x.com/NBCSportsSoccer/status/1915121190697382342 " target="_blank"><em>NBC Sports</em></a>: “The priority for Manchester United in this upcoming transfer window is attack. They are looking at a centre-forward and a No.10 as their main focus. They want to get on with it pretty quickly. The finances are in place, as I understand it, to do the deals they would like to do. They do not depend on European football, I am told, nor on sales to necessitate them.</p><p>“Their main focus for the No.10 position is Matheus Cunha of Wolverhampton Wanderers. He has a £62.5m release clause. He wants to come, but personal terms would still need to be agreed, which is not a formality.</p><p>"In the striker department, it is Liam Delap of Ipswich Town that is their No.1 target. He has a £30m release clause if Ipswich are relegated. But there are a lot of other suitors for him, including Chelsea. I think Liam Delap will decide before the European U21 Championship on where he wants to go.</p><p>“If Manchester United are to look at others, I’m assured it will not be Victor Osimhen. Despite reports you might be reading, he is not on the agenda for Manchester United. They will have other options because they might have to turn to them, or they stick with internal solutions such as Rasmus Hojlund and they focus on other positions.”</p>

WHAT TRANSFER EXPERT SAID

<p>Osimhen has previously spoken of his desire to play in the Premier League, with it suggested that talks had been opened between his representatives and Manchester United. That may not be the case after all, with the prolific 26-year-old being left to explore other options.</p>
