Perhaps we should also transfer Sancho for free? Maybe hand over Old Trafford as well? Throw in a lifetime subscription for MUTV?
Victor Osimhen
- Thread starter L1nk

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Victor Osimhen would jump at the opportunity to play at United. Every Nigerian see the top of the EPL as the dream.
See Ighalo as an example, I doubt United can come up with the funds though, Osimhen has a lot of potential, tall, quick, aggressive, strong.

No thanks 
Just saw how much Napoli paid for him, that's a staggering amount really
70m + Ronaldo would be a fair deal
Only way I could see this being even vaguely plausible is if the Antony deal didn't go through and we decided this would be our big money signing in attack instead. He's quality but I'd be very surprised if he wasn't more expensive again than Antony.
Doesnt he have a £100mil release clause fee in his contract with napoli ? Sure i saw that somewhere when he signed for them.
Release clauses usually shall be paid upfront as a lump sum. Could be difficult in case of 100m pounds. Normal deal is usually structured differently
Dodgy af deal
Not totally against a high sum for the player maybe 70 odd million and Ronaldo, I think he's the type of player who will hit the ground running.
Money is mental for him though
Very true, £100mil upfront is alot of money to borrow from a bank. Interest payments alone would be horrible.
Napoli paid €80 for him a couple of years ago. He has done well for them since. Going to be very hard to get him.

This could potentially be a very good deal.
I can’t believe that Ronaldo’s ego would allow him to be used in a player plus cash deal for a relatively unproven youngster.
Hothead and doesn't score all that much. 100mil, of course.
Hothead strikers do well here
Do you think Utd would entertain that figure
Not seen much of him, but his goalscoring record is pretty decent
Haven’t seen much of him. What player(s) does he stylistically compare best to?
Haaland, maybe Cavani
Definitely a bit of Danny Ings
Need that kind of striker but money is nuts
100 million + Ronnie. Ronnie takes a paycut and Napoli pays his salary.
Otherwise feck em and go back for Donkey Jong.

We simply have to go back for Donkey
He's pretty good and will fit ten hag system quite well i reckon.
100 mill is too much money though.
I also wonder if we're gonna try again for that sesko kid or not if he were to have a break out season.

Sesko has signed for Leipzig, stays at Salzburg this season.
Well can safely say we won't get for less
Yeah I know, I think they'd sell if a great offer came through next year.
You may be right unfortunately.
Another planted bullshit Glazer story. Not happening
He's a better version of Brobbey so I think there's something in this.
I've wanted us to sign a forward like this for years. Someone that's powerful enough to create their own chances and bring power and pace to the front line.

They got him for 70m. Pretty sure they won't sell anything less. Any decent striker cost that much money these days. If it's a loan + obligation to buy next year, we should do it.
I'd love to get shot of Ronaldo and bring on someone with a future. But more than that I'd be patient and not jump the gun.
There's already plenty to deal with to add a 100m+ one-in-two striker that collects cards for fun. May bring with him more problems than solutions.
Not far off how I feel about Antony, mind, except that at least the manager probably knows he will run through brickwalls for him (else we are mental).
Okay...
Let's talk in 7 days and see if he signed. Or Antony.
How is De Jong doing in red shirt? Tearing up the place, yet?
Glazer propaganda machine (which they are not even denying) is alive and well, thanks to GullibleCaf Inc
I won't ever fall for it
What do you think Utd would value him at, something along lines of €85m plus addons
