Osimhen's Gala call for 'Unity and Fair Play' ahead title-decider against bitter rivals Mourinho's Fenerbahce
Victor Osimhen will lead Galatasaray in a fierce battle against bitter rivals Fenerbahce and their enigmatic manager Jose Mourinho, but the Lions boss has demanded for unity and fairness.
The Italian journalist stated that sources close to the player and Napoli, Osimhen's parent club, have denied that United scouts have watched him in person recently.
Osimhen's future is expected to be a major talking point in the summer transfer window, with his release clause dropping to €80million (£66million) at the end of June. United are likely to face stiff competition for his signature, but Romano's comments suggest that they are not yet in advanced talks to sign the Nigerian striker.

With United's striking duo of Joshua Zirkzee and Rasmus Hojlund struggling to find the back of the net this season, scoring just five Premier League goals between them, a move for a prolific striker like Osimhen could be on the cards.
However, as Romano pointed out, financial considerations will play a crucial role in determining whether United can bring in a player of Osimhen's caliber.
