    Fabrizio Romano: Osimhen Willing to Take Under £200k/Week for Man Utd Move

    Transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, has claimed that Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, is willing to accept a weekly wage of under £200,000 at Manchester United, contrary to reports suggesting he wants £300,000 per week.

    This comes amid speculation that the club owners are reluctant to meet the Nigerian striker’s supposed wage demands.

    Romano told Givemesport that reports of Osimhen demanding around £300,000 per week are “wide of the mark” and that the Napoli striker is prepared to accept a more modest salary.

    “He just wants his current salary (around €12m net, £10.2m per season) to be respected, nothing different. Same as one year ago,” Romano explained.

    The reduced wage expectations could pave the way for United to make a move for the 26-year-old, especially considering Mason Mount earns £250,000 per week at Old Trafford.

    Osimhen is expected to leave Napoli following a successful loan spell at Galatasaray, where he scored 37 goals and provided eight assists in 41 games across all competitions.

    The striker recently rejected a massive £30m-a-year offer from Saudi Arabian giants Al-Hilal, preferring to continue his career in European football.

    Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has suggested that Osimhen’s rejection of the Saudi offer indicates he is waiting for a call from Old Trafford.

    “It looks like he’s turned down Al-Hilal… he must be waiting for Manchester United. I don’t know if Manchester United are going to come. That’s the problem,” Ferdinand said on his YouTube channel.
