Osimhen has been a regular in either the Champions League or Europa League since joining Lille in the summer of 2019. |
Former midfielder John Obi Mikel has insisted Victor Osimhen will not join Manchester United in the summer transfer window if the club fail to qualify for any UEFA competitions next season.
In the Soccer Sunday Live program, Mikel emphasized: "If Manchester United do not have a ticket to the European Cup next season, Osimhen will not come, similar to many other names".
Currently ranked 14th in the Premier League, Manchester United's only chance of qualifying for next season's Champions League is if they win the 2024/25 Europa League. Otherwise, the "Red Devils" will not qualify for any European tournament next season.
Osimhen has become the center of attention as Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea are interested in him ahead of the 2025 summer transfer window. The 26-year-old striker is always eager to play in the Champions League or at least play in the Europa League.
According to Osimhen's compatriot Mikel, the striker will reject any club that does not play in the European Cup next season. In addition to Osimhen, The Times revealed that Matheus Cunha will also consider the possibility of not playing at Old Trafford if the "Red Devils" fail to qualify for the 2025/26 Champions League.
While Manchester United are favourites to sign Cunha, Newcastle and Arsenal are also keen on securing his signature.
Failure to qualify for the Champions League next season could also put MU in a difficult financial position, putting them at a disadvantage in the transfer market.
