Victor Osimhen transfer news odds: Man Utd lead Chelsea, Liverpool and Newcastle with bids expected 'in the coming days' | The Sun

THE race is on for superstar Victor Osimhen.

The Nigeria international, 24, is the name on everybody's lips after firing Napoli to their first Serie A title in 33 years.

Osimhen struck 31 goals and provided five assists in 31 appearances in all competitions and finished as the league's top scorer – five clear of Lautaro Martinez.

His exploits have attracted the attention of Europe's biggest sides including Chelsea, Manchester United and Real Madrid.

However, it was Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain who tried to deliver the first blow with an £86million offer.

Title-winning Napoli promptly rejected the proposal, and Gazzetta dello Sport claim that will spark an auction across Europe — particularly from the Premier League.

It claims Liverpool, Manchester United and Newcastle are all sizing up bids for Osimhen, who is described as "on the international podium" along with Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe.

Napoli chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis is a notoriously difficult customer to negotiate with, and reportedly values Osimhen at a colossal £150million.

Nevertheless, Gazzetta dello Sport claim more offers are expected 'in the coming days' and bookmakers Sky Bet think Manchester United are the leading contenders.

The Red Devils are favourites at 7/2 with Erik ten Hag desperate to sign a genuine centre-forward ahead of next season's Champions League participation.

Chelsea follow at 9/2, but will likely need to offload Romelu Lukaku before trying to clinch Osimhen's signature.

PSG are clearly interested and could launch a renewed offer after seeing their opening bid dismissed. They are available at 9/2 with Sky Bet.

Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are next at 12/1, although reports suggest the pair are more preoccupied with the signings of Harry Kane and Mbappe this summer.

Newcastle are 25/1, ahead of Arsenal (33/1), Barcelona (40/1) and Manchester City (40/1).
