Manchester United told Victor Osimhen is 'stronger than' Cristiano Ronaldo in key area

"He opens gaps for his teammates, walks the defences and then scores. He does not give up and is always the protagonist - he plays every ball as if it were the one of life."
On Osimhen's greatest attribute, Giordano said: "The header. In this fundamental he is even stronger than Cristiano
