Osimhen could be a great first signing

B🦄urley shared his verdict on Boniface and the Napoli striker.

“Who are the first signings M𝔉anchester United should make when INEOS group takeover?”

“I think they need someone to come in and take some weight off of Rasmus Hojlund because Martial is a waste of space. I꧋ don’t know if they’d ဣbe looking at someone like Boniface from Leverkusen,” Burley said.

“There is an opportunity to get strikers in who aren’t in a title race at the moment, Osimhen, Napoli are h✅aving a bad season,” The host said.

“Yeah, he’s not having the best time, yeah, alright, it’s easy isn’t it? You sh🗹ould be an agent,” Burley said.

Osimhen would be a statement signing

Victor Osimhen could be the perfect first signin🧸g for Unite⛎d in January.

The Nigerian reportedly wants out of Napoli, and he’s being courted by some of the biggest clubs in the world.

If United are able to muscle their way to the front of the queue in the race for Osimhen, they would be showing they mean business under Ratcliffe, and it would potentially re-energise🌺 the whole club as the new investors would be showing that they want to get back to where they believe the club belong.

It remains to be seen who United will bring in this January, but it has to be said t🙈hat Osimhen 💎would be a great option.
