Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has reached an agreement with Manchester United over personal terms ahead of a potential summer move, according to Turkish journalist Aygün Özipek.
United are said to be keen on signing a top striker following Rasmus Hojlund’s disappointing turnout this season.
Osimhen, who is contracted to Napoli, has been on fire for his loan club Galatasaray, netting 29 times while registering six assists in only 34 games.
It was learnt that the 26-year-old is open to a move to Old Trafford even without the prospect of Champions League football on offer.
Özipek said United have agreed a five-year deal with Napoli for Osimhen for €60 million.
While Osimhen’s release clause was pegged at €75 million, Napoli were said to be willing to lower it to prevent rivals Juventus from landing the striker.
The journalist further disclosed that the striker will receive €15 million per season in wages, which amounts to €288,461 per week.
“Osimhen signs 5-year deal with Manchester United. A transfer fee of 60 million euros will be paid. The football player will receive a net annual salary of 15 million euros,” Özipek wrote on X.
