Gyökeres, who was believed to be United's primary forward target this summer, is now reportedly favouring a switch to Arsenal. Brazil believes this is the perfect moment for the Red Devils to turn their attention to Osimhen, whose goal-scoring exploits in Serie A and Europe have established him as one of the world’s most sought-after strikers.
“Osimhen fits the bill,” Brazil said, noting the Nigerian's blend of power, pace, and consistency. “He’s proven at the top level, and United need a striker who can lead the line and deliver right away.”
Manchester United are in urgent need of firepower after a disappointing campaign in which they finished outside the Premier League’s top four and struggled in front of goal. Despite flashes of potential from Rasmus Højlund, the club is still missing a proven centre-forward capable of consistent output.
Osimhen, 25, won the Serie A Golden Boot with Napoli in the 2022/23 season and remained prolific during a loan spell at Galatasaray. His physicality, finishing ability, and big-game mentality make him a perfect candidate for Premier League football. Football legends like Rio Ferdinand, Paul Scholes, Louis Saha, and John Obi Mikel have all previously endorsed a move for the Nigerian forward to United.
With Napoli reportedly open to a sale at the right price, the path could be clear for United to strike, if they are prepared to meet the financial terms.
