Patrice Evra has called on Manchester United to sign Victor Osimhen from Galatasaray, even as the club closes in on a £38m deal for Atalanta midfielder Ederson.
The former United left-back said the Nigerian striker is the “difference maker” United need up front. Ederson is set to become Michael Carrick’s first signing since taking charge, but Evra believes adding Osimhen would give the squad more firepower across all competitions.
“Victor Osimhen. I have all due respect for Galatasaray, the love he gets there and what the player is like,” Evra told GOAL. “Manchester United need a proper striker, and I have so much respect for the strikers at Man United.”

He added that United thrived in the past with multiple top strikers and need the same depth again. “Back in the day, we had four amazing strikers, and if you want to play every competition, you need more strikers. Osimhen because I know this guy can make a difference,” he said.
Osimhen scored 22 goals last season to help Galatasaray win the Turkish Super Lig.
