Why Premier League teams failed to sign Osimhen – Cole

Former Manchester United striker Andy Cole has suggested that Premier League clubs may have been hesitant to sign Victor Osimhen due to factors beyond transfer fees and salaries. Osimhen has had interest from several top Premier League clubs, including Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea, but no deal has been finalized.

Cole spoke to GOAL and highlighted that Osimhen's goal-scoring ability is well-documented, noting his successful stints in Italy and Turkey. However, he emphasized that signing a player involves more than just financial considerations. Cole stated that various other factors could come into play when a club decides to sign a player from a different country, and it remains to be seen which Premier League club will ultimately secure Osimhen's services.
