Man Utd and Chelsea want to sign Napoli star

Manchester United and Chelsea are pushing to sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen at the end of the season, according to Corriere dello Sport.

The Nigerian has been in fantastic form for the Naples outfit this campaign, bagging 17 goals and four assists from just 18 Serie A outings.

This has led to widespread speculation over his future and it is reported that United and Chelsea are best placed to land the highly-rated star.

However, the Premier League giants will have to break the bank for the marksman, considering Napoli have no immediate plans to sell.

Aurelio de Laurentiis has been a tough negotiator over the years and it is claimed that Osimhen could cost a staggering €160m this summer.

Liverpool have also been linked with him in the past, but a deal seems unlikely with the Merseyside outfit likely to prioritise midfield additions.

Osimhen is said to be determined to move to the Premier League this summer, though he is unlikely to force through a departure.
