Who is Ibrahim Osman? The Ghanian 19-year-old is reportedly on the radar of a number of Premier League clubs including West Ham United.
Who Is Ibrahim Osman?
Ibrahim Osman, born 29 November 2004 (19), currently plays for Danish Superliga side FC Nordsjaelland – who played in the Europa Conference League this season and sit fifth in the league table.
In 14 starts for his club in the league, Osman has recorded one goal and four assists – making 1.2 key passes per game with a total of six big chances created for his teammates, which is believed to have caught Premier League side West Ham’s eye.
According to reports, Osman – who graduated from the same ‘Right to Dream’ football academy as current star Mohamed Kudus – is a strong target for the club, but they face fierce competition from a number of others such as Arsenal and Brighton.
He’s been described as a two-way winger with an explosive first step, giving him the ability to create elite separation when attacking his man.
A quick, strong and direct forward like Osman could provide a new dynamic to the Hammers’ frontline, who are seeking further squad depth as they continue their push to win the Europa League.
“A player we really like that has come from the same Ghana football academy as Kudus is left winger Ibrahim Osman. The club are expected to test the waters should Moyes agree to it, but face competition from Arsenal, Brighton and a whole host of other clubs.” [@ExWHUEmployee] pic.twitter.com/yYKm40JEEc

The youngster was the centre of reports towards the end of the year which suggested Arsenal were ready to hack the player’s potential move to Brighton in January, with the Seagulls left with injuries to Solly March, Ansu Fati and Julio Enciso.
Bundesliga outfit Borussia Monchengladbach are also believed to be sniffing around and it doesn’t look like this highly-rated prospect will be in Denmark for much longer.
