DONE DEAL: Man Utd strike deal to sign £43m star before deadline – Report

The Canadian international Jonathan David, who plays for Lille in France, is a target for Manchester United.

As an alternative to Kane, the Red Devils ultimately hired Hojlund, although FT claims they attempted to entice the American center forward in the summer.

Ten Hag is looking to sign another striker as the Danish international has only managed one goal in fifteen Premier League games so far.

The news source stated that David, who wants to leave the Ligue 1 team, is being courted by the Old Trafford team.

Aston Villa is reportedly keeping an eye on the 23-year-old former Gent goal scorer, and Man Utd may be able to sign him before the deadline.

David has even been linked to Serie A powerhouse AC Milan; according to Corriere dello Sport, his valuation is approximately £43 million (50 million euros).

He has played in 24 games for Lille across all competitions so far this season, contributing 6 assists in addition to 10 goals.

In 45 appearances since making his debut for Canada back in 2018, he has scored 26 goals.

Man Utd has scored the fewest goals in the top 10 after 20 Premier League games—only 22 goals—behind West Ham, who has scored 33 goals.

Therefore, before this month’s transfer deadline expires, the strike force needs to be strengthened. Do you think Manchester United should bid £43 million to sign Jonathan David?
