According to reports, Manchester United are negotiating a deal with Marseille to sell Mason Greenwood as they look to fund Victor Osimhen’s transfer move.

The Red Devils have been a big admirer of the Super Eagles striker after his impressive season with Napoli.

However, they have to raise over 100 million euros to sign the Super Eagles star from Napoli this summer.

Man United are now looking to sell off some players this summer like Jadon Sancho and Greenwood to fund their transfers.

Greenwood’s stay at Old Trafford could come to an end this summer as Man United are negotiating a deal to see him leave for Marseille.

According to Fabrizio Romano, “Manchester United have received an official bid from Marseille for Mason Greenwood.

“Talks are underway between the two clubs, Greenwood’s still OM's main target with agreement getting closer. Man United are open to a loan with obligation to buy, a sell-on clause included.”

The England international is also a target for Juventus and Lazio who have made contact with Man United.

However, Marseille are leading the race to sign the winger and his next destination will be France if a deal is struck.

Should Man United sell Greenwood, they could make a move to sign Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen.

Osimhen is still unsure of his next club, having decided to leave the Italian side this summer with the club currently looking for a suitable buyer.
