Bayern Munich CEO Oliver Kahn has hinted they will not go after Victor Osimhen this summer, in a big boost for Manchester United's hopes of signing the striker.
The 24-year-old has been a key part of Napoli's Serie A success this season, scoring 23 league goals as Luciano Spalletti's side wrapped up their first Scudetto in 33 years earlier this month.
United have prioritised finding a new striker since losing Cristiano Ronaldo in November, and have been linked with Osimhen for months.
Napoli chief Aurelio De Laurentiis maintains the Nigeria international will not be leaving the club this summer and the player himself has played down talk of a move, but the Red Devils believe he will be available for around £130 million.
