Rafael Tells Man United to Sell Hojlund and Sign Victor Osimhen This Summer

Former Manchester United defender Rafael has urged manager Ruben Amorim to consider selling Rasmus Hojlund and sign Victor Osimhen this summer. Hojlund has struggled to make an impact in his second season at Old Trafford, scoring just four goals in the Premier League and six across all competitions, including the Europa League.
Rafael made it clear he prefers Osimhen over Hojlund, praising the Nigerian striker’s talent and consistency. “I really like Osimhen; he’s a top player. Honestly, I would choose him over Hojlund any day,” Rafael told RG. “I’m not a big fan of Hojlund right now, though I hope he improves. I’m not sure if he’ll stay at Manchester United.”
Osimhen, currently on a season-long loan at Galatasaray, is expected to leave Napoli by next season. His impressive form in Turkey, with 25 goals in 29 matches, puts him on track to win the league’s top scorer award. With his proven goal-scoring ability, many see Osimhen as the perfect player to strengthen Manchester United’s attack moving forward.

Granat Says It’s Sad That Some Top Nigerian Players Won’t Play in Russia Friendly

Former Russian defender Vladimir Granat has shared his disappointment over the absence of some key Super Eagles players, especially Victor Osimhen, ahead of the upcoming friendly between Russia and Nigeria. The match is set for June 6 at Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium. Nigeria’s coach, Eric Chelle, has already named his squad, but it doesn’t include Osimhen, Ademola Lookman, Alex Iwobi, or Calvin Bassey.
Granat feels this weakens the Nigerian team and believes it’s a missed opportunity for a strong contest. Speaking to Sport Express, he said he was hoping for a more competitive Nigerian side. “Nigeria is one of the toughest opponents recently. I was looking forward to a solid match,” Granat said. “It’s a shame that top players like Osimhen won’t be there. I wanted to see Nigeria bring their best team.”
He added that without their strongest lineup, the Super Eagles won’t be able to truly challenge Russia or test their own level on the world stage.

Man U Stands by Amorim Despite Europa League Loss and Poor League Form

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is not at risk of being sacked despite their 1-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final on Wednesday. Sky Sports reports that the club still sees Amorim as a key part of their long-term plans.
Even though United missed out on an automatic Champions League spot, the defeat won’t affect their faith in the 40-year-old coach. After the match in Bilbao, Amorim said he would step down immediately without asking for compensation if both the club’s board and fans no longer supported him.
Amorim took over from Erik ten Hag in November when United were 13th in the league. Since then, the team has slipped three more places, hovering just above the relegation zone. They have also been knocked out of all three cup competitions this season.
