Breaking news:why Man United pick £84m Victor Osimhen as the man to replace Cristiano Ronaldo, detail explained .

 Cristiano Ronaldo's playing time 

at Manchester United could be dramatically

 reduced if the Old Trafford side are 

successful in their pursuit of Victor Osimhen.




The 22-year-old has impressed for


 Napoli this season having scored


 11 goals in 22 appearances despite 


missing two months of action due 


to a cheekbone injury.



Since returning to the side in January


, the Nigerian scored two goals in 


six appearances and is reportedly 


on Ralf Rangnick's radar.



According to Rai Sport journalist 


Ciro Venerato, the 22-year-old is United’s


 primary target to replace Cristiano


 Ronaldo in the summer but Napoli 


wants at least £84m for the youngster.



Ronaldo returned to Old Trafford last 


summer and despite hitting the ground


 running, his form has dried up and he 


has scored just once in his last 10 games.



The Portuguese superstar is under


 contract until 2023 but is on £480k-a-


week, making him the best-paid 


Premier League player.





He is also 37 making him 15 years


 older than Osimhen so it is easy 


to see why Rangnick is interested 


in the Nigerian.



Despite Ronaldo's slump in form, 


he remains the top goalscorer at United


 this season on 15 goals.



Bruno Fernandes is in second on 


nine while Marcus Rashford and 


Jadon Sancho have only scored a 


combined nine.

Breaking news: Ralf Ragnick set to sign his gladiator defender today from Dortmund , before hearing anything from Manchester United board .

  Manchester United have made initial  enquiries about a possible move for  Borussia Dortmund defender Manuel  Akanji. United have been prioritising a defensive  midfielder and a striker for the summer  but talks over Swiss international Akanji  indicate Ralf Rangnick wants a new  centre back also. Defender Phil Jones is still hoping  to leave despite turning down a move to  Bordeaux last month while Eric Bailly  remains unhappy at his limited  playing time. Question marks have also been  raised by Rangnick regarding the level  of Harry Maguire's performances and an  experienced defender such as Akanji  would increase competition. The 26-year-old has 16 months left  on his contract and is valued at  £26million by Dortmund who bought  him from Basel for £15m in 2018. The German club have offered Akanji a  new contract worth around £6.7million  a year but his representatives are understood  to be pushing for closer to £8.3m in  wages, around £162,000 a week. Despite reports in German
