Man Utd Face Massive Hurdle in Pursuit of €75M-Rated PSG Target Due to Limited Budget | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain have been linked with Victor Osimhen during the past two transfer windows, and with the summer window still months away, the speculation surrounding his future is already intensifying.

Now playing for Galatasaray, Osimhen has rediscovered the form that made him one of the standout players of the 2022-23 season, attracting interest from Europe’s top clubs ahead of the upcoming transfer window.

This season, he has scored 22 goals and provided five assists in 28 matches across all competitions for the Turkish side. According to Give Me Sport, Osimhen is a top target for Manchester United, who could trigger his €75 million release clause this summer.

Recently, journalist Yağız Sabuncuoğlu reported that both Manchester United and PSG have officially expressed interest in signing Osimhen this summer.

Both clubs have made verbal offers regarding his contract and salary, with plans to meet his release clause. Galatasaray manager Amorim is also eager to bring him in.

Football Insider reports that Manchester United will face significant challenges in securing a move for Osimhen this offseason. While the Red Devils remain an attractive destination for world-class talent, they are unlikely to have a large budget to spend in the summer transfer window.

The report mentions that United will need to sell players to fund their summer transfer plans. To make matters worse, the club will also find Osimhen’s wage demands to be a significant obstacle.

Recently, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano provided an update, stating that Manchester United are not in “advanced talks” with Osimhen.
