Kane, 29, and Osimhen, 24, are two of the most talented strikers worldwide right now, with each having superb seasons.
Nobody questions Kane’s abilities, whereas Victor has 23 goals and 5 assists for only 28 matches so far.
The Nigerian has also helped the Italian club reach the Champions League quarter-finals for first time in its history, having scored against Frankfurt on Wednesday evening in a 3-0 (5-0 on aggregate) victory.
“If I were Manchester United, I would go for Kane because he understands the Premier League,” the champion of the World Cup told CBS Sports.
Kane, on the other hand, does not need to adjust to anything.
“Kane can perform anywhere; he can fit in with any team – except Arsenal!”
“That has nothing to do with Osimhen not being a good player. He can play for a variety of teams and in any league.

“Everything comes to him when you collaborate with a club like Napoli. It’s a different story when you perform on the front three.
Henry stated that he is interested in seeing how Osihmen reacts when he is not the only central focus at a big club, but instead plays alongside a forward.
However, the former Paris international stated that the Nigerian forward “is everything” on the field.

“He can hold the ball up well, run into the channel, and finish well with his head and foot,” said the former Premier League winner.
