Manchester United ‘throw hat in ring’ for signing – Talks with player’s father

Borussia Dortmund are currently strutting around knowing they can spend a big chunk of the money from Jude Bellingham’s transfer to Real Madrid.

They’ve been linked with multiple options to replace the former Birmingham City player, and there’s a possibility the German club could sign more than one replacement.

Ajax’s Edson Alvarez is perhaps the player who has been linked the most, and there’s been some confidence a deal can be done. Germany’s Sport1 say another option is Felix Nmecha, but they state BVB could face competition from Manchester United.

According to the report, Erik ten Hag’s side have ‘thrown their hat into the ring’ for Nmecha, who is a 22-year-old midfielder. The youngster recently split with his agent, and his family have been taking charge of things.

Therefore, Manchester United are said to have spoken to Felix Nmecha’s father about a possible transfer. There’s the chance of a bargain deal, because there’s only a year of contract remaining with Wolfsburg.

Sport1 believe a deal could even be done for around €15m, although don’t be surprised if the figures now rise because Manchester United have been mentioned.
