Napoli defender, Kim Min-Jae, has reportedly expressed his desire to join an English Premier League club, with Manchester United heavily linked as his potential destination, Soccernet.ng understands.
However, the move may not materialize immediately due to contractual obligations. But, if it happens, It could have a significant impact on United's pursuit of Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen, keeping their hope for a good forward alive.
The South Korean defender, has garnered attention for his exceptional performances in Napoli's triumphant Scudetto campaign, and his recognition as the Best Defender in the Italian Serie A league makes him an ideal target for top clubs, including Manchester United.
Meanwhile, if the former Fenerbahçe star were to make a move to Old Trafford, it could potentially create a domino effect, impacting the club's pursuit of the Super Eagles star.
The Nigerian star has been on United's radar since Cristiano Ronaldo's departure, and his goal-scoring prowess and versatility make him an appealing target.
However, securing Osimhen's signature has proven challenging thus far, with Napoli's president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, ruling out a move for the 24-year-old, and as well slapping a price tag of £150 million to secure the signature of the attacker.
The arrival of Kim Min-Jae at the Theatre of Dreams could serve as an enticing factor for Osimhen, as the duo had already developed a strong on-pitch connection during their time together at Napoli.
The prospect of reuniting with his former teammate, who played a crucial role in Napoli's success, could sway Osimhen's decision-making process.
Additionally, Osimhen's admiration for the Premier League is well-documented. The opportunity to play alongside Kim Min-Jae, a fellow teammate and trusted ally, could be a decisive factor in Osimhen's ultimate destination.
However, it's important to acknowledge that transfer negotiations are complex and often unpredictable. While the potential move of the Asian defender to United may increase their chances of landing Osimhen, other factors such as contractual agreements, financial considerations, and the interests of other clubs can influence the final outcome.
I can see if man united could sign kim min jae and victor osimhen, united will fight for the english premier league title in this coming season and even they will be champion.
