Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United have reportedly opened talks over a sensational move for Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen, according to TEAMtalk. The Nigerian international, who has been prolific in the Super Lig, is attracting serious Premier League interest as the transfer window edges toward its close.

Why Spurs Are Eyeing a New Striker

Dominic Solanke and Richarlison remain Tottenham’s frontline options, but neither offers total security. Solanke has struggled for consistency and fitness since his move from AFC Bournemouth, while Richarlison — despite finishing as the club’s top scorer last season — enters the final year of his contract with his long-term future unresolved. With Randal Kolo Muani now off to Juventus after his loan spell ended, Spurs are exploring the market for reinforcements, and Osimhen has become a name on their radar.

Wage Demands Complicate the Chase

Arsenal and Man Utd have also held internal discussions over Osimhen, but his hefty salary expectations have cooled interest across the board. Galatasaray, meanwhile, are standing firm, having already knocked back a substantial bid from Al-Hilal. They’re only expected to budge if a club tables an offer too lucrative to ignore.

United’s Options Make a Deal Unlikely

Man Utd’s forward line — featuring Benjamin Sesko, Joshua Zirkzee, Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha, and Marcus Rashford — already looks well-stocked, making the Red Devils the less likely suitor to push forward. Tottenham, on the other hand, are said to be tracking his situation closely, with Osimhen himself reportedly open to a Premier League switch. Valued at around £64m by Transfermarkt, he brings pace, aerial strength, and clinical finishing to any attack considering a move before the window shuts.
