Manchester United Eyeing Donyell Malen Amidst European Exit
Following Manchester United‘s ousting from European competitions after their defeat to Bayern Munich, it’s evident that the team lacks the strength to compete at the continent’s highest level, signalling a need for significant reinforcements.
Recent reports have strongly linked the 20-time English champions with Dutch international and Borussia Dortmund talent, Donyell Malen, hinting at a potential move to Old Trafford.
Earlier reports from Germany suggested that Borussia Dortmund might be willing to part ways with Malen to secure the return of Jadon Sancho.
Now, latest insights from Ruhr Nachrichten suggest that the 24-year-old forward, valued at £25.7 million, is keen on a move to Manchester United.
Sources indicate that Malen is eager to make the shift to England and showcase his skills in the Premier League, viewing United as a promising destination to further his career.
Sancho, once a star for Borussia Dortmund, faced a downturn after his move to Manchester United. The player, having been sidelined this season after featuring in the initial three league games, might face an exit in the January transfer window if Erik ten Hag, the manager, sees no use for his services.
With Antony and Rashford also experiencing a dip in form, Manchester United is visibly lacking in quality within their wide attacking positions. Bringing in Donyell Malen could significantly bolster their offensive capabilities.
Considering £25.7 million price tag for Malen, the question arises: Should Manchester United make this investment to secure the services of the talented forward?
