Napoli striker and Manchester United target Victor Osimhen is open to joining Bayern Munich this summer as both European giants search for a new centre forward, according to reports.

As per Florian Plettenberg, German powerhouse Bayern Munich want Osimhen and discussions will follow in the coming weeks to set the price and define what Thomas Tuchel wants.

As for Manchester United’s stance on the Nigerian, the Manchester Evening News claim Erik ten Hag is also interested in Osimhen but would prefer Tottenham’s Harry Kane in the number nine shirt at Old Trafford next season.

This may seemingly give Bayern the edge in the race for the Napoli man, leaving United to focus on Harry Kane.

But whatever happens, it is clear Manchester United must sign a number nine in the summer.

Wout Weghorst has been poor during his loan spell, which is up at the end of the season anyway, whilst Anthony Martial is injury-prone and has shown he is not at the level required to lead the line for a top-four team anyway.
