Man Utd are putting pressure to sign 23yo winger, he's available for £21m - report
Manchester United have a firm interest in signing Bologna forward Dan Ndoye this summer.
The Red Devils are likely to invest in multiple positions in the current transfer window. A right-sided winger could be one of the priorities for manager Erik ten Hag.
4-4-2 in Switzerland today claim that United have a concrete interest in landing Ndoye and they are currently putting pressure to secure his transfer from Bologna.
The Red Devils recently requested information over the asking price. The Serie A outfit have responded with a £21 million price tag for the former Nice and Lausanne man.
INEOS could be behind United’s interest in Ndoye
The 23-year-old spent part of his youth career with Swiss club Lausanne, who are currently owned by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS.
The young forward went on to join sister club Nice in the summer of 2020, but he barely played for them before a move to Basel.
Bologna signed him alongside Riccardo Calafiori from Basel last summer and it appears the duo could be on the move after one season.
United are being linked with an approach for Ndoye, who made eight goal contributions from 38 games for Basel and Bologna last term.
His statistics are not exceptional, but the move is probably being orchestrated by INEOS, who are prepared to back his potential.
Ndoye has already impressed for Switzerland at Euro 2024 with his direct running. He scored against Germany in the group stage.
It is likely that United will negotiate on the price. They could be prepared to pay between £10-15m for Ndoye, who can also play up front or on the left wing.
