Man United keeping tabs on €65 million star who would be an ideal Rashford replacement

Signing a wide attacker will be on the agenda of Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim in the summer.

The Red Devils are set to offload both Marcus Rashford and Antony after this season.

Currently, both the wide players are on loan at Aston Villa and Real Betis respectively.

Amorim and United would be delighted with their performances on their loan moves since that could help the club get a good amount of transfer fee when they decided to sell them.

Rashford had a fall-out with Amorim at the club making it almost impossible for him to represent the Red Devils again while Antony has settled well in La Liga and that is where he would like to continue his football.

Man United are eyeing a move for a wide attacker who has been impressing the biggest Premier League clubs this season.

According to Caught Offside, Man United are one of the clubs keeping tabs on Atalanta attacker Ademola Lookman.

The 27-year-old has 18 goals and seven assists this season in 32 appearances for the Italian club.

He is a versatile attacker who can play on either wing or upfront in attack. The Nigerian international is expected to leave Atalanta at the end of the season and the race to sign him could be intense in the summer.

Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle United and Aston Villa are all keeping tabs on him.

Regarding a transfer, Lookman’s representatives have been contacted by Barcelona. The Catalan club’s continuous financial issues, nevertheless, may make this transfer challenging to accomplish.

Atalanta are set to demand €65 million for their star attacker which should not be a problem for United to afford.

Viktor Gyokeres of Sporting Lisbon is another attacker on the radar of United.
