Ighalo and Berbatov advocate for Osimhen’s move to Manchester United

Former Manchester United strikers Odion Ighalo and Dimitar Berbatov have both expressed their support for Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen to join the Red Devils. Osimhen, who had an impressive season with Napoli, scoring 26 goals and providing five assists in Serie A, has attracted interest from top clubs including Manchester United, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain.

Ighalo, who had a loan spell at Manchester United in 2020, believes Osimhen would be a good fit for the club. He described Osimhen as a hungry player who fights for the ball, bullies defenders, and excels in the air. Ighalo also mentioned that Manchester United would bring out the best in Osimhen, and he could achieve a lot with the club.

Berbatov, another former United striker, emphasized the need for the club to sign a striker capable of scoring 20 to 25 Premier League goals per season. He expressed his preference for Osimhen and stated that if the club fails to secure his signature, they should pursue another striker who possesses the ability to play with his back to goal, make timely passes, and score goals consistently.

Manchester United is reportedly keen on strengthening their attack during the summer transfer window, and Osimhen has emerged as a potential target due to his impressive performances in Italy.
