According to transfer market expert, Fabrizio Romano, Premier League side Manchester United’s signing of Nigeria intentional Victor Osimhen will depend on the new owner’s budget for the summer transfer window.
There has been pressure from the fans about the continued 18 years of Glazer ownership of United as over a thousand supporters protested at Old Trafford on Sunday ahead of United’s clash against Aston Villa.
Indeed, United’s most recent title came in the 2012-13 season, which was Alex Ferguson’s final season of management before his retirement.
This title drought has been compounded by the fact that city rivals, Manchester City, have claimed the Premier League trophy on five occasions within the period.
In their efforts to revive the team, Napoli striker
Osimhen has been linked with a move to Old Trafford.
The 24-year-old Serie A top scorer has been outstanding this season and has scored 21 goals to help the Parthenopeans maintain an 18-point lead and one match to win their first Scudetto since 1990.
But the Italian football expert in his YouTube broadcast claimed that how much the club can spend will depend on the new owners and their financial plans for the summer.
