Manchester United was deeply in search of a striker from days. Reports claimed United have finished the talks with Monaco striker Wissam Ben Yedder for playing in Reds. As all set to take him at Old Trafford after the meeting with his agent.
Moreover, Machester United was looking forward to getting the Sancho and Grealish as they were the priority signings of MUFC. But the high rate of Sancho and almost the same for Grealish makes United think beyond the square. As a result, they found one of the Ligue 1 team strikers at an appropriate rate.
Much needed Ighalo’s replacement found by United
However, an old man Ighalo will leave the Machester United after January 2021. As his loan contract will end at the start of the year. Whereas, United was in search of such great goal scorer with attacking mindset for the support of Marcus Rashford. Whereas, he is known as one of the goal machines from Europe. Hence he will be perfect to set at Ighalo’s place.
However, after Monaco finding the replacement for Ben Yedder, they get ready to sell him. As they are looking to get striker Andre Bellotti from there side.
Whereas, Monaco looking to sell him at £35.6m, which sets the same price they had purchased him last August from Sevilla, as French reports cleared it. The deal will come to a final decision after the meeting with Ben Yedder’s agent gets off.
One of the goal machine in Europe
Wissam Ben Yedder the French nationalist played five different clubs till now namely, Saint-Denis, Alfortville, Toulouse, Sevilla FC & Monaco. He also played in France U21 and France’s senior team. Where he scored 2 goals in 5 appearances for France.
However, Yedder is known as one of the goal machines from Europe. Hence, he finished as the top scorer from Ligue 1 by netting 18 goals in 26 arrivals for Monaco this season. Consequently, he had scored 171 goals in his 366 total career appearances. Overall it proved the attacking tendency of the striker.
Overall, Machester United has many options as a forward i.e Marcus Rashford, Martial, Greenwood, Ighalo, etc. Further, if 29 years old will added to it then there will no chance of lower attack and hence it will help to brace up the attack. Whereas, United looking another two strikers namely M Dembele and V Osimhem which will much costlier than Ben Yedder.
Manchester United will try to get deal with Ben Yedder in £35.6m from Monaco which will also help to balance the fund for Sancho or Grealish signing.
