There is currently no official confirmation that Victor Osimhen has signed with Manchester United, despite various online rumors suggesting otherwise.
Neither the player, Manchester United, nor trusted sources like Fabrizio Romano have announced any agreement. The reality is that the situation remains uncertain and far from finalized.
Manchester United are genuinely interested in Osimhen, who is considered one of the world’s top strikers. However, per Fabrizio Romano, no advanced talks or formal negotiations have taken place yet.
Osimhen remains under contract with **Napoli** (currently on loan at Galatasaray), and although Napoli are open to selling him, any deal must meet their valuation.
As of June 1, his release clause is reportedly around €75–80 million, which is more affordable than in previous windows.
Still, one major issue is Osimhen’s salary demands. He currently earns around €12 million net per year (approximately £200,000 per week), which presents a serious obstacle for Manchester United under Financial Fair Play (FFP) constraints. A pay cut would likely be required — something not yet agreed upon.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabian clubs remain a threat, as they can comfortably meet both the asking price and wage demands.
Some unreliable outlets have falsely reported that United have secured Osimhen for as little as £25–30 million, but these claims lack credibility and are not supported by trustworthy sources.
In summary:
* Manchester United are interested in Osimhen.
* No deal has been agreed.
* Transfer fee and wage demands remain key challenges.
* Reputable journalists (like Fabrizio Romano) will provide reliable updates if talks progress.
Until then, fans should view the situation as ongoing — but far from complete.
