Man United has reportedly identified Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta as the target transfer for the summer window.
The Red Devils need the help of a striker as their current choice, Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirczee, have been combined only for five premier league goals this season.
United only have one competition left to play for this season under Ruben Amorim because they will fight for the European League. They draw 1-1 in the 16th round of the first leg against Real Sociedad, and are in a solid position for the second leg at Old Trafford next week.
However, the attacking game has been bad this season under Amorim, and Man United has failed to take their chance on too often.
They have been linked to the signing of the sports striker Viktor Gyokeres, who previously played under Amorim. However, he has a large release clause of £ 83 million, and will be a difficult signing to make rules of profit and sustainability. He is also associated with Arsenal rival.
With a Galatasaray striker loan Victor Osimhen has also been linked to the move to Old Trafford, but he is also not expected to be cheap. The figure around £ 65 million-£ 70 million is understood as the price.
Man United Want Palace Star Mateta
However, because these two targets are regulated to order a large price label, Man United has reportedly identified alternatives that are cheaper than the Premier League.
According to The Sun, Man United saw Crystal striker Palace Jean-Philippe Mateta as the target transfer, and reportedly had sent a surveillance to watch him in his last three matches for Eagles.
Mateta has been caught fire since the new year, he scored a total of 12 goals in 27 Premier League matches for the Oliver Glasner team, and realized the description of striker number number nine pure.
The report said that United saw the signing of the striker as a “priority”, but choosing a matta than the others would also free some funds to be spent on other positions as well.
