‘Osimhen Is the Best for Me’: Evra Urges Man United to Sign Nigerian Amid Arsenal Links

Former Manchester United defender Patrice Evra has urged the club to sign Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen, despite the forward being strongly linked with a move to Arsenal in recent days.

Speaking to GOAL, the Manchester United legend identified Osimhen as his preferred option for the club’s attack, praising the Nigerian’s goalscoring ability and describing him as a perfect example of the type of striker United need.

‘A striker, someone who scores goals… I think that’s what I’m looking at. So Osimhen is the best for me. He is a perfect example,’ Evra said.

Osimhen’s future has continued to attract significant attention, with Arsenal reportedly emerging as one of the clubs interested in securing his services.

Reports have claimed that the Premier League side has opened discussions with Galatasaray over a possible deal, although no agreement has been reached.

With Arsenal among the clubs reportedly monitoring the Nigerian, Evra’s intervention has added another dimension to the transfer speculation, with the former France international making a direct appeal for his former club, Manchester United, to pursue the prolific striker.
