According to Il Mattino, Manchester United are planning a swap deal involving striker Joshua Zirkzee and Napoli’s Victor Osimhen. Zirkzee, 23, who joined United from Bologna for €42.5m in the summer, has struggled under new manager Ruben Amorim, scoring just one goal and providing two assists in 17 appearances. Now, Amorim is reportedly ready to let him go.
Osimhen, 25, has long been on United’s radar. He’s currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, with a release clause set at around €75m. Reports suggest United are preparing an offer of €30m plus Zirkzee to secure the Nigerian forward.
