Napoli have reportedly entered the race to sign Manchester United striker Mason Greenwood.

Napoli are trying to find an agreement with Manchester United to sign winger Mason Greenwood in a deal worth around €30m, according to Sport Mediaset.

The Italian club, led by Antonio Conte, have joined the race to sign the 21-year-old, who is no longer part of Manchester United's plans.

Greenwood to replace Osimhen at Napoli?

Greenwood has already received a formal bid from Marseille, but the deal has been put on hold due to resistance from the French club's fans.

Napoli are seeking a replacement for Victor Osimhen, who is expected to leave the club this summer, and Conte believes Greenwood has the potential to provide the necessary goals.

According to Sky Sport Italia, Napoli are working hard to finalize a deal with Manchester United, with Sport Mediaset reporting that an agreement is imminent.

The move would be a significant coup for Napoli, who are looking to strengthen their attack ahead of the new season.

Greenwood, who has struggled for game time at Old Trafford, is seen as a talented young player with plenty of potential for growth.
