Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has urged the club to sign Victor Osimhen this summer.
Ferdinand believes the Nigerian striker would provide Manchester United with the attacking quality needed to compete at the highest level.
Osimhen has established himself as one of Europe’s most dangerous forwards through his performances in Italy and Turkey.
The striker has attracted significant interest from several major European clubs, with his goalscoring ability making him one of the most sought after forwards in the transfer market.
Ferdinand believes Manchester United need a player capable of consistently leading their attack and converting opportunities.
Osimhen’s pace, physical strength and finishing ability could offer the club a different dimension in the final third.
The Nigerian has also demonstrated his ability to perform under pressure and compete against strong defenders.
Manchester United have been searching for greater attacking consistency and could consider making significant changes to their forward line.
Ferdinand believes Osimhen would be a strong addition to the squad if the club can reach an agreement for his transfer.
The striker’s future was expected to remain a major talking point as the summer transfer window approached.
For Osimhen, a move to the Premier League could provide another opportunity to test himself in one of Europe’s most competitive leagues.
