Transfer: Bayern Munich cannot afford Osimhen – Hoeneß

Former Bayern Munich president, Uli Hoeneß has stated that the club cannot afford Victor Osimhen.

The Bavarians are one of the clubs reportedly interested in luring Osimhen away from Serie A champions, Napoli this summer.

The other three are Manchester United, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain.

Napoli is expected to demand around €150m to sell their talismanic forward.

Hoeneß reckoned Osimhen is a quality striker but said the Bundesliga champions don’t have the financial muscle to do the deal.

“Kolo Muani? He’s a very good player. I also think Victor Osimhen is good – but in my opinion he is completely unaffordable”, he told sueddeutsche.de.

Osimhen has scored 25 goals in 32 league appearances for Napoli this season.

The 24-year-old also scored five more goals in the UEFA Champions League.
