According Soccer insider information, manchester united They are certainly interested in signing one of ChelseaThe players in form this campaign.
The Red Devils have had a bad start to the season first division season and have accumulated only 15 points after 11 games played. They have struggled in the final third and could look to add more creativity in the attacking department in the next. transfer window.
Former United scout Mick Brown has now said so Soccer insider information that the Red Devils are “certainly interested” in signing Christopher Nkunku and could make a formal move in January or next summer. The Frenchman could leave the Blues in search of regular playing minutes.
Perfect fit
Nkunku has entered his second season with the Blues but is yet to become an established figure in the starting eleven. He was unable to do so last season after a series of injuries. The former RB Leipzig player has remained fit during the current campaign but has failed to secure a starting place in the Premier League under Enzo Maresca.
Nicolas Jackson has been preferred ahead of Nkunku as the main striker, while Cole Palmer and Noni Madueke have been guaranteed starters in the number 10 and right-wing roles respectively. Pedro Neto and Jadon Sancho have been Maresca's usual selections on the left wing. Nkunku can play anywhere in the attack, but Maresca has started him largely in Carabao Cup and Conference League matches. He has only one start in the English top flight this season.
The Frenchman could look for a new challenge when the transfer window reopens and United could be a great fit for him after the arrival of Ruben Amorim as new head coach. Amorim operates with two attacking midfielders behind the center forward in a 3-4-2-1 formation. Nkunku could prove effective as one of the inverted attackers.
Nkunku can also play forward as he has the ability to run behind defenses and has excellent finishing skills. He is Chelsea's top scorer this season with 10 goals in 17 games. The big question is whether United will be able to convince Chelsea of a temporary deal in January with an option to buy, given concerns over the limits of the PSR. The Blues are only willing to sell him if they can get the money back. £52 million fee paid.
