Moussa Dembele desperate for Manchester United move
According to Sky Sports reporter Kaveh Solhekol (h/t Express), Moussa Dembele dreams of a move to Manchester United in the summer.
United were in the market for a striker in January following the injury to Marcus Rashford. The Red Devils eventually chose to sign Odion Ighalo on loan for the rest of the season.
Solhekol has claimed that the club will sign a striker on a permanent deal in the summer, with Lyon’s Dembele a real possibility. He also went on to add that the player is keen on a move to Old Trafford.
“Manchester United will sign a striker in the summer and Lyon’s Moussa Dembele wants to move to Old Trafford.
The report goes on to say that Dembele will leave Lyon at the end of the season. He is familiar with the English game, having already played for Fulham early in his career.
The striker has scored 13 times for Lyon this season. With the French side suffering injuries to key players, they were unwilling to let go of him in January.
