Manchester United's recent defeats have highlighted the team's struggles in front of goal, emphasizing the need for a clinical and ruthless striker. With Marcus Rashford, Rasmus Hojlund, and Joshua Zirkzee showing glimpses of improvement under Ruben Amorim, the Red Devils are now on the hunt for a proven goal-scorer.

The Premier League giants' lack of firepower has been evident, with a goal difference of just +1. This statistic underscores the urgency for Amorim to bolster his attacking options. In light of this, Manchester United have identified Napoli's Victor Osimhen as a prime target.

According to Il Mattino, as reported by Napoli Magazine, Manchester United are interested in signing the Nigerian international, who is currently on loan at Galatasaray. Osimhen's impressive performances in Turkey have caught the attention of top European clubs, including Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain.

Osimhen's release clause of €75 million (£62m) is considered a bargain for an attacker of his caliber. Napoli's willingness to sell the striker could provide Manchester United with the perfect opportunity to address their striking woes. With Osimhen's experience in guiding Napoli to a league title, he could bring not only quality but also leadership to the Manchester United side.

As Manchester United continue their pursuit of Victor Osimhen, the club's fans will be eagerly awaiting a resolution to the team's striking conundrum. With the January transfer window approaching, Amorim will be hoping to secure the services of the Nigerian international and inject new life into Manchester United's attacking lineup.
