Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has opened up on his future amid speculation linking him with a move for Manchester United.
Earlier in the transfer window, United were linked with the Nigerian striker after he scored 18 goals in 32 appearances for the Serie A club. Speculation has died down somewhat since then as the 23-year-old began his pre-season with Napoli.
United are likely to still be on the lookout for a centre forward especially if Cristiano Ronaldo decides to leave Old Trafford. However, Osimhen appears to be comfortable with staying in Italy. Arsenal have also been credited with an interest.

"I’m in Napoli," he told Corriere dello Sport via Metro. "I have great respect for my club.
"They are just rumours of the market. I’m fine here and I’ve never had such close relationships with everyone as at this moment.
"I spoke to the president, he is the one who decides, and he reassured me by explaining the club’s plans. I am happy with what he told me and the purchases are of quality: words were followed by deeds.
"I am very happy to play with Napoli and we will see in the future."
