<br>Rio Ferdinand has made a fervent appeal to Manchester United, [insisting](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/news/interviews/benjamin-boldly-backs-flying-eagles-ahead-of-morocco-clash/) they must pursue Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen in the upcoming summer transfer window. Citing Osimhen’s prolific record at [Galatasaray](https://agf-wiki.dk/index.php/Bruger:RamiroTrenerry3) and his elite-level consistency, the former Red Devil demanded that United "make it happen" swiftly.
<br>
<br>Ferdinand highlighted the lack of from [Rasmus Højlund](https://blogtechwiki.xyz/index.php?title=User:Julissa6078) and Joshua Zirkzee this season evident in their low goal tallies—and described Osimhen as the missing piece to revitalise the attack. His message was clear: "We need Osimhen…someone who knows how to score at the elite level consistently".
<br>
<br>A [seasoned](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/international-nigerian-footballers/chelsea-player-close-to-finalizing-permanent-move-to-strasbourg/) centre-forward, Osimhen has impressed in Serie A, Ligue 1 and now in the Turkish Süper Lig, where he has netted over 25 goals for Galatasaray this season . Ferdinand believes United should aim for either a loan or permanent deal immediately, ideally sending him to Old Trafford to guide their young strikers.

<br>Although some concerns remain about his adaptability and the complexity of a move from Napoli, experts and ex‑players argue that his proven scoring record and [experience](https://azbongda.com/index.php/Th%C3%A0nh_vi%C3%AAn:Duane21G22) in hostile environments make him the ideal candidate to lead United’s line.

<br>Editorial
<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)
<br>We believe that Ferdinand’s plea rings with urgency and for good reason. Manchester United are [painfully](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/player-profiles/anaemena-celebrates-third-npfl-title-after-remo-stars-landmark-victory/) light in front of goal. Their reliance on unproven young strikers has left them toothless and lacking direction. Osimhen, by contrast, is a rare breed of striker: physically dominant, ruthlessly clinical and battle-hardened across Europe’s top leagues.
<br>[bit.ly](https://bit.ly/AviatorGameOnlineBET9JA)
<br>We think United need more than promise they require someone who consistently delivers. That someone is Osimhen. Beyond his goal-scoring prowess, he offers a leadership presence on and off the pitch, exactly what could catalyse a resurgence for Højlund, Zirkzee and the wider squad.
<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)
<br>We appreciate the financial and logistical challenges of his transfer. Yet football isn’t built on hesitancy. Bold decisions define eras. Bringing Osimhen in now could reshape their season and set a new tone under Ruben Amorim. He’s not just an option he’s essential.
<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)
<br>We are convinced that if United are serious about reclaiming top-tier status, they must act decisively. Your new season demands more than hope. It demands Osimhen.
