Osimhen and Gyokeres: A Comedy of Errors?…
Manchester United fans, prepare to tighten your seatbelts because the Reds are at it again! The team has scored fewer goals than a granny at the gym, and strikers Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee have teamed up for a whopping 14 goals all season. Clearly, something needs to be done before Old Trafford becomes known as the ‘Land of the Goalless’.
Enter Victor Osimhen and Viktor Gyokeres, the latest names added to United’s ever-growing shopping list. It seems Ruben Amorim may have had history with Gyokeres at Sporting, but alas, hearts and contracts remain unlinked. Gyokeres reportedly desires the glitzy lights of a Champions League club rather than catching up on Netflix in 13th place. As for Osimhen, he’s merely a name on United’s celestial wishlist, according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano—no serious talks, but hey, a club can dream.
Ruben Amorim still clings to cautious optimism. “Mistakes? We don’t make the same ones twice,” he insists, as he avoids a mid-season shopping spree. The boss is playing chess while everyone else is playing football, taking big risks like he’s in line for a 2-for-1 deal at the striker supermarket this summer. Meanwhile, fans continue to pray for goals on the pitch, not just on their fantasy football teams.
