Victor Osimhen, who has been linked with Manchester United, could potentially join Bayern Munich this summer.
The Bundesliga champions are considering a move for the Napoli striker, but are hesitant over the price being quoted for the 24-year-old, with Napoli reportedly demanding around £100m for the Nigerian international.
Despite the steep asking price, the Bayern hierarchy is believed to be huge admirers of Osimhen, and could make a move for him if the fee is right and their head coach, Thomas Tuchel, gives his approval. Bayern Munich has been on the lookout for a top striker to bolster their attacking options, and Osimhen could be the ideal addition to the squad.
However, Napoli’s demands for such a high transfer fee could prove to be a stumbling block for the Bavarian giants, as they look to balance their books and strengthen their squad for the upcoming season. If they do make a move for Osimhen, Bayern Munich will be hoping to secure his services before the transfer deadline, which is rapidly approaching.
Victor Osimhen has been in impressive form for Napoli since his arrival from Lille in 2020, scoring 12 goals and providing two assists in 28 appearances for the Italian club. His performances have caught the attention of several top European clubs, including Manchester United and Bayern Munich.
While Manchester United is believed to be keen on securing Osimhen’s services, it seems like the Bundesliga champions may be in the driving seat for the Nigerian striker’s signature, provided they can agree on a fee with Napoli. Fans of both clubs will be eagerly watching this space to see how this transfer saga unfolds in the coming weeks.
