Manchester United are stepping up interest in Napoli striker Victor Osimhen after another scouting trip to Italy last week.
Reds representatives were in Naples on Wednesday for the Serie A leaders’ Champions League quarter-final against AC Milan. Although the hosts went down 2-1 on aggregate, Osimhen was on target in the second leg, which ended 1-1. That made it 26 goals in 31 games this season.
To date Napoli have not opened talks on a new deal with their Nigerian international, who has two years left on the contract signed in September 2020 on his £70million arrival from Lille. There is a suggestion that delay is down to United’s continued pursuit - with the Italians not against the idea of cashing in now.
