Former Aston Villa forward, Gabriel Agbonlahor warned Manchester United against paying over the odds for Victor Osimhen.
Manchester United is reportedly leading the race for the Nigeria international, a subject of interest from Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain.
Clubs are anticipating Napoli to ask for around €150m to sign the Nigerian player, who has scored 26 goals in 33 games this season. Napoli is chasing their first Scudetto win since 1990.
Agbonlahor has, however, advised United not to pay an exorbitant fee for the striker.
I do like him but he’s only done it for one season. It’s dangerous when you’re going and buying players who have only been outstanding for a short amount of time,” Agbonlahor told Football Insider. I can tell you that the Premier League is a much tougher league than Serie A, and Manchester United will be wary of paying silly money for him.”
Osimhen joined Napoli from Ligue 1 club Lille in 2020 and is the top contender for the African Footballer of the Year.
