🎯 Man United eye move for Brazilian striker, says journalist | OneFootball

After signing Matheus Cunha, Manchester United may turn their attention to Evanilson, Bournemouth's Premier League striker.

According to transfer specialist journalist Ekrem Konur, the Red Devils see the Brazilian as fully adapted to the English Championship.

Recently, the European press put Gyokeres, from Sporting, in the sights of United, but the Swedish striker is highly coveted in the market, with Arsenal on his heels, and still has the Portuguese game to negotiate his main player.

The name of the 25-year-old striker, trained by Fluminense, may gain strength behind the scenes, also for being "proven" in English football.

Evanilson arrived at Bournemouth in August 2024, for £40.2 million, after standing out at Porto.

In the 2024/25 season, the Xerém player played 35 games, with 12 goals and 5 assists.

At Bournemouth, he took the number 9 shirt, left by Dominic Solanke, and responded, including with important goals, such as in the historic victory over Manchester City, 2-1, ending the rival's 32-game unbeaten run, in November 2024.

For the Brazilian national team, Evanilson was called up for the last Copa América.
