Napoli forward Victor Osimhen would turn down a move to Arsenal if a bid from Manchester United came in for him. That’s according to Corriere dello Sport journalist Antonio Giordano, who claims both clubs have been keeping tabs on the 23-year-old.
He’s netted 15 goals in 25 matches so far this season, four of which have come in his last two fixtures. Newcastle reportedly tried to sign Osimhen in January but Napoli rebuffed any offers, making it clear they were keeping him until at least the summer. The Magpies had apparently offered £83.5m for the striker.
However, recent reports from Corriere dello Sport (via Football Italia) said Napoli have increased their asking price to at least £100m with Osimhen’s form continuing to blossom. Both the Gunners and United are said to not be put off, albeit would likely want to negotiate down from that nine-figure fee.
