Man Utd transfer news: Erik ten Hag ‘identifies three strikers’ he prefers over Joao Felix | Football | Sport
Only Erling Haaland scored more Bundesliga goals than the Czech Republic star last season. He has just three strikes to his name so far this term though, in 15 appearances, and has four-and-a-half years remaining on his contract.
The last of the trio Ten Hag has an eye on is Dembele. The 26-year-old has long been linked with a move to United.
Alexandre Lacazette’s return to Lyon this summer has restricted Dembele’s game time so far this season. The former Fulham and Celtic striker has two goals in nine outings, five of which have been as a substitute.
He scored 21 times in Ligue 1 last term but will be frustrated by his lack of minutes this season. Dembele will soon enter the final 18 months of his contract so could be the easiest deal for United to complete.
