NAPOLI STRIKER VICTOR OSIMHEN IS WANTING TO LEAVE THE SERIE A CHAMPIONS THIS SUMMER HAVING SPENT LAST SEASON ON LOAN AT GALATASARAY 17:00, 05 Jun 2025 Victor Osimhen is reportedly set for

talks with Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal as Manchester United focus their attention on Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo. _MEN Sport _understands that United have made an opening offer for

Mbeumo worth £55m as they focus on new targets following Liam Delap's decision to join Chelsea. The first bid by the Reds is thought to see £45m paid up front with a further £10m

accumulated through add-ons. Still, this figure is believed to be below what the Bees were expecting but talks shall continue between the two clubs. While Mbeumo mainly played as a

right-sided winger last season, he did feature as a centre-forward for the London club. While United are firmly locked in negotiations with Brentford, another rumoured target looks to be

closing in on a move to the Saudi Pro League. Osimhen has been heavily linked with the Reds as they aim to add a striker to their ranks this summer. However, after being snubbed by Bruno

Fernandes, Al Hilal are now energised to bring in the Nigerian who could be an option for United if a deal with Mbeumo cannot be struck. According to Ben Jacobs, Osimhen is in talks with Al

Hilal after receiving a formal proposal from them. It is believed the Saudis would be willing to pay his £63m asking price but having been burnt by Fernandes, have set a tight deadline. They

want to know if Osimhen is willing to join by June 10 so that he meets the first mini deadline of the transfer window and would be able to accompany them to this month's Club World Cup

in the United States. Article continues below Osimhen is now believed to be Al Hilal's top target ahead of the tournament. The concern for United is that they will not be able to offer

the same wages as the Saudi club which means they would have to rely solely on their pull to get the deal done. The Nigerian centre-forward did not leave Napoli last summer because he was

uninterested in a move to the Saudi Pro League. It remains to be seen if he keeps that stance. --- _Here at The Manchester Evening News, we are dedicated to bringing you the best Manchester
