According to reports, Man United is prepared to pay €100 million to acquire Osimhen during the summer transfer window.
The Nigerian international has had a successful season at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, recording five assists and 23 goals in 28 games for Napoli in all competitions.
Scholes, however, has now suggested that Erik ten Hag aim for Martinez instead.
The ex Man United midfielder believed the Argentinean international (Martinez) fit the Ten Hag player profile, he stated
“Lautaro Martinez of Inter Milan is a player I admire”, said Scholes to BT Sport.I believe he is a player in the mold of Ten Hag; Ten Hag prefers a center forward who will go around, be aggressive, and engage in physical contact.
“I like United’s present alternatives,” he continued. I appreciate Marcus Rashford. I enjoy Anthony Martial, but Martial just can’t stay fit. So there are options out there.”
Recall that
The UEFA Champions League Goal of the Week title has been won by Victor Osimhen.The Nigerian international will be receiving the honor for the first time.
