Napoli striker 'rejected' Manchester United transfer because of Odion Ighalo

Image

Victor Osimhen's brother claims the Nigerian striker rejected the chance to join Manchester United in the summer window because of his respect towards Odion Ighalo.

Osimhen shone while at Lille last season and was rewarded for his fine form when he secured a massive move to Napoli back in July.

The 21-year-old had been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League prior to his transfer with United, Liverpool and Tottenham all touted as potential suitors.

Osimhen's brother, Andrew, claims United showed genuine interest in trying to sign the forward earlier this year but he says there was no chance of the move happening while Ighalo remained at the club.

Ighalo and fellow Nigerian Osimhen have a close friendship and according to the striker's brother it was this mutual respect which made him reject a move to Old Trafford.

Why is this even news, its not even believable.
Ighalo being there is the more reason he should have gone there.

Good decision, Napoli is a better option for you. You have playmakers like Isigne, Lozano and Napotano at Napoli that will feed you the ball.
Winners do it the right way.

He is just been respectful. He turned down Manure because Napoli was the better option or made the best offer for him. Liverpool was also interested.
