Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made Nigeria’s Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen his ‘ top priority’ signing for the Old Trafford side this season.
Solskjaer has been desperate to sign a new striker since he took over at Old Trafford and brought in former Nigeria international forward, Odion Ighalo on loan during the January transfer window.
The United boss has indicated that he is willing to turn Ighalo’s move from Shanghai Shenhau into a permanent one following the striker’s impressive start at the club.
But according to Le10 Sport, United have made Osimhen one of their top targets for the summer transfer window.
But the report claims that United are facing competition from Real Madrid, who are also looking to bolster their attacking options.
The 21-year-old has been in excellent form for Lille this season with 18 goals in 38 appearances.
Osimhen, who is Ighalo’s teammate with Nigeria’s national team, has been capped nine times and has scored four goals.
