Gambling

01 January 0001

Napoli striker Victor Osimhen could spark a major bidding war this summer after admitting that he is open to leaving the club.

have responded by offering odds on his next destination, with Manchester United currently leading Chelsea and Bayern Munich in the race.

It is easy to see why Europe’s richest clubs are keen to sign the Nigerian superstar, as he has blazed a trail of destruction across Serie A this season.

Osimhen is the league’s top scorer, and his prolific form in front of goal is all but certain to propel Napoli to their first Scudetto title since 1990.

However, he has refused to rule out a transfer amid intense speculation about his future, and those comments have put potential suitors on red alert.

Osimhen joined Napoli for a club record €70m in 2020, and he has blossomed into a world-class forward since then, so he would command a hefty fee.

However, elite goalscorers are few and far between in world football, so many clubs would be prepared to pay the price, and we have rounded up the leading contenders below.

Manchester United

The Red Devils have enjoyed a renaissance under new manager Erik ten Hag this season, but they still lack a focal point in attack.

Marcus Rashford has been terrific operating off the left flank, but United have frequently had to rely on loanee Wout Weghorst down the middle.

His goalscoring record is poor, while Anthony Martial is injury-prone, so signing a striker should be a priority in the summer.

Osimhen fits the bill perfectly, as he is a superb finisher, he has the pace to keep up with Rashford and he is also excellent in the air.

Man Utd have been linked with signing him for several months, and they are likely to lodge a transfer bid in the summer.

Recent comments from Osimhen were seen as delivering a blow to United’s aspirations, but they will be undeterred.

Man Utd have had no trouble attracting big names in recent years, including Casemiro and Raphaël Varane from Real Madrid, so they are the 11/2 favourites with to sign Osimhen.

Chelsea

Chelsea’s need for a striker is even more pressing, as the Blues have been woefully toothless in attack this season.

They have spent a record-breaking sum on new players since Todd Boehly purchased the club, but they seemingly overlooked signing a striker.

As such, only five Premier League teams have a worse attacking record than Chelsea this season, which is why they find themselves languishing in mid-table.

Financial Fair Play rules could scupper their ambitions, but Chelsea will still be in the market for a striker this summer, and they are likely to get involved in any bidding war for Osimhen.

Some bookies make them the 7/2 favourites to sign him, but you can find a market-leading 10/1 at Bet365.

Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich have regressed this season after talismanic striker Robert Lewandowski forced a move to Barcelona last summer.

The nadir came in a 3-0 first leg defeat to Manchester City, a result that laid bare the need for more firepower.

Eric Maxim Choupo Moting has exceeded expectations, but he was Lewandowski’s understudy, and he is unlikely to fire Bayern back to the summit of Europe.

They could decide to rebuild their attack around Osimhen, who has the potential to score goals for fun in Germany.

He is still just 24 years old, which makes him an ideal transfer target for Bayern, but it remains to be seen if the Bavarians could outbid Premier League rivals for his services.

Some UK bookmakers make Bayern the 6/1 second favourites to sign Osimhen this summer, but you can grab 14/1 at Unibet.

Real Madrid

Los Blancos may soon turn their attention to finding a long-term successor to star striker Karim Benzema.

The reigning winner is still operating at the peak of his powers, but he is now 35 years old, and they cannot rely on him forever.

It would be hard for Osimhen to resist the lure of Madrid should they come calling, and the prospect of him linking up with Vinicius Junior would excite the fan base.

Real Madrid are priced at 16/1 with BetUK to sign him this summer.

Barcelona

Barcelona are on course to win La Liga after bringing in Lewandowski from Barcelona in the last summer transfer window.

However, the goals have started to dry up for Lewandowski in recent weeks, so they may seek a younger alternative in Osimhen.

It seems unlikely, as Barça are operating under serious financial constraints, but they have pulled off some unexpected transfer coups of late.

For that reason, they are next in the betting at 20/1 to sign Osimhen before summer transfer window slams shut.

The Rest

Newcastle and Arsenal all priced at 25/1 with to win the race for Osimhen’s signature.

Arsenal are unlikely to pay such an extravagant transfer fee when their priorities lie elsewhere, particularly midfield.

However, Newcastle could be an interesting option at 25/1 with BetVictor, as the Magpies are flush with cash and they need more firepower to challenge for the title.

Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson have shown flashes of brilliance this season, but Osimhen would represent an upgrade.
