According to Il Mattino, winger Alejandro Garnacho has agreed to personal terms with Napoli and has reportedly informed Manchester United of his desire to move to the Stadio Maradona this month.

However, a big hurdle remains in the transfer fee as Manchester United are reportedly demanding around €80m for the Argentine winger, while Napoli's current offer stands at €50m, with a willingness to increase it to a maximum of €60m.

To bridge this gap, Il Mattino reports that Napoli have proposed a potential discount on Victor Osimhen for a future transfer to Manchester United.

Osimhen, who will have a €75m release clause active after a loan spell at Galatasaray, could be available for a lower fee if United agrees to Napoli's valuation of Garnacho.

The development adds a complex layer to the transfer negotiations. It was previously reported by La Repubblica earlier this month that Osimhen had rejected a January move to Manchester United, preferring to stay at Galatasaray until the end of the season.

The proposed discount could potentially reignite Manchester United's interest in the Nigerian striker for a summer transfer.

Manchester United and Napoli representatives are expected to meet to discuss these potential transfers, but the large discrepancy in valuation for Garnacho and the uncertainty surrounding Osimhen's future make the outcome of these negotiations unclear.
