Arsenal, Man Utd and Liverpool in battle to sign Donyell Malen
Liverpool, manchester united and Arsenal Everyone is thinking about signing Borussia Dortmund attacker Donyell Malen before the summer. transfer window, according to journalist christian falk.
The journalist revealed on his social media account that Liverpool are interested in signing the 25-year-old Dutchman but will face competition from Manchester United and Arsenal.
The Red Devils could try to initiate a swap deal involving Jadon Sancho with Dortmund. Sancho is currently on loan at Dortmund and they reportedly want to make the move permanent, so some sort of swap deal could suit all parties.
Arsenal are also keeping an eye on Malen, who was part of their youth team between 2015 and 2017, as Mikel Arteta seeks to reinforce its attack with a versatile forward.
Malen would improve the three clubs
Liverpool are linked with Malen after reportedly identifying the Dutchman as a possible replacement for Mo Salah. The Dortmund star reportedly cost around £52 million after contributing 13 goals and 5 assists in the entire competition this season.
Meanwhile, Manchester United need more quality on the flanks. Sancho is on loan at Dortmund and has no future at Old Trafford while Erik ten Hag is in charge. Antony has failed to live up to expectations at Manchester United, so it is no surprise that he would be linked with the likes of Malen ahead of the summer.
As for Arsenal, they have not been able to rotate players like Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka due to the lack of depth in the attack. Signing Malen would allow Arsenal to rotate their squad and keep key players fresh.
The 25-year-old attacker was an Arsenal youth player before leaving the club in 2017 and the opportunity to return could be an exciting proposition for him. He will feel that he has unfinished business at Arsenal.
It will be interesting to see how things develop over the coming months, but it looks like Arsenal, Liverpool and Man Utd could fight over a deal to sign Malen this summer.
