Manchester United are reportedly considering to sign as many as three Napoli stars this summer, according to reports in Italy.

It is widely known that Man Utd are in talks to sign South Korea centre back Kim-Min Jae.

This week, some sections of the Italian media have gone as far as to say that a deal between Kim and United is already as good as done, although his entourage have denied the news.

Kim has a clause in his Napoli contract that will allow United to sign him for around €50 million in the first two weeks of July.

The talks are now at an advanced stage, according to Il Mattino, with only minor details separating the parties from a total agreement.

It is also common knowledge that Man Utd are considering making an official bid for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

Osimhen has been arguably the best player in Serie A this season, top scoring in the division and leading Napoli to their first Scudetto in 33 years.

United are in the market to sign a top-class number nine this summer, and Osimhen is believed to be the main option on their shortlist together with Tottenham striker Harry Kane.

But there are now reports in Italy that Man Utd are also looking a third Napoli player in the form of midfielder Andre-Frank Zamobo Anguissa.

Anguissa has been a colossus in the heart of the Napoli midfield since arriving from Fulham and has formed a brilliant trio with Stanislav Lobotka and Piotr Zielinski.

United are also looking to sign a top midfielder to partner Casemiro for next season, and Anguissa is someone they are looking at.

The Cameroonian is a box to box midfielder with impressive physical attributes, and certainly suited to the rigours of Premier League football.
