Victor Osimhen has already dropped a big Manchester United transfer hint ahead of a potential move.

A huge focus has been placed on recruitment at Man United following Sir Jim Ratcliffe's purchase of a minority stake.

Despite the £72 million acquisition of Rasmus Hojlund last summer, the Red Devils are thought to be in the market for a forward.

And Osimhen's name continues to be linked with a switch to Old Trafford ahead of the transfer window reopening this summer.

The Napoli superstar has been the subject of intense transfer speculation following his goal-scoring exploits in Italy.

He has scored an impressive 11 league goals in 16 appearances this campaign, having scored 31 goals in all competitions last season.

Man United are thought to be keeping tabs on his situation ahead of making a move.

It seems the 25-year-old could be open to a transfer to Man United as he owns one of the club's shirts in his wardrobe.

However, he also owns a Chelsea shirt, with the Blues monitoring the player, too.

Speaking on John Obi Mikel's podcast, Osimhen revealed: "I don’t have a favourite Premier League team but I’ve two jerseys: Chelsea and Man United."

He added: "Many friends of mine are Chelsea fans, few are Man United fans. Premier League is the most appreciated league by every African player - it’s a huge league."

Osimhen's services won't come cheap as he has a whopping £94 million release clause.

And it's not just Man United and Chelsea who hold him in high regards.

Arsenal are thought to be admirers of Osimhen as they could enter the market for a forward in the summer.

Paris Saint-Germain, who are set to lose Kylian Mbappe at the end of the season, have identified the Nigerian as a potential replacement.
