After a disappointing season in 2021-2022, the Premier League giants are expected to undergo a massive rebuild under new manager Erik ten Hag this summer.

Last season, the Red Devils scored 57 goals in 38 Premier League games, with Cristiano Ronaldo leading the way with 18 goals in 30 appearances.

But Ronaldo lacked support from his teammates as Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Edinson Cavani scored just nine league goals between them.

Meanwhile, Osimhen joined Napoli from Lille in the summer of 2020 for a club-record fee of €70 million.

The Nigerian international scored 18 goals in 32 appearances for Napoli last season, helping Luciano Spaletti’s side finish third in the Serie A table.
