Manchester United are expected to sign the Pachuca winger, Hirving Lozano. The club has been linked heavily with the Mexican player recently.
After signing a completely unknown talent from Mexico (Javier Hernandez), the chief scout, Jim Lawlor is looking to get Lozano to Old Trafford.
Lawlor is extensively scouting Hirving Lozano and his teammates, Erick Gutierrez and Rodolfo Pizarro.
He is nicknamed “Chucky” and plays on the left wing even though he is a right-footed player.
The Mexican footballer is also on a lookout by other European clubs.

The 20-year-old player joined the Liga MX club in 2009. He made his senior debut in 2014 and also scored the winning goal on the debut.
Lozano has made appearances for his national side at U-20 and U-23 level.

 Manchester United were also linked with Pachuca midfielder, Hector Herrera back in 2012.
The club will be doing their best to land the young talent at Old Trafford after experiencing many failed transfers last year.
