Cole backs Osimhen to succeed at Man Utd, doubts Napoli will let him go

Legendary Manchester United striker, Andy Cole is certain Victor Osimhen will be a natural fit for his former club, reports SportsRation.

The Nigerian striker who is currently one of the best in the world has been linked with a move to some of the best clubs in Europe including Manchester United.

Victor Osimhen’s current form is just as good, if not better than the best strikers in the world at the moment.

He has 13 goals in all competitions this season, and currently tops the Serie A scoring chart with 12 goals.

Manchester United have been rumoured to be in the market to bring in Harry Kane to Old Trafford next season, but a number of their fans are asking for Victor Osimhen, and Andy Cole, who made name for himself scoring goals for the club has also added his voice on the matter.

In an interview with Betway, Cole who won multiple league titles, FA Cup and the Champions League with the Red Devils said Osimhen has all it takes to make it at the club.

“I think Victor Osimhen at Napoli is very good and could be the long-term natural fit,” Cole told Betway.

The former Manchester City striker, however, is unsure if his club Napoli, would be willing to let him go.

“The question is whether Napoli would be prepared to let him go.

“He’s rangy, got a good first touch, scores goals, and is a decent size as well.

“I watched him play against Liverpool [in the Champions League] and he was more than prepared to link the play and then run in behind.”
