Manchester United had to share a point with Nottingham Forest last weekend. So, their three-game winning run came to an end.
Also, at one stage, when United took the lead, Ruben Amorim’s men jumped to the second spot in the table. However, the reality hit United fans hard and really fast.
Currently, they are in eighth position in the table, just two points behind second place. Also, they are eight points behind the league leaders, Arsenal.
Now, the Red Devils are moving their attention to the transfer market. They are looking to find solutions in the midfield, something Ruben Amorim wanted in the summer.
Manchester United are preparing to make a move for one of England’s brightest young prospects.
The club have reportedly entered the race to sign a midfielder who could soon follow the same meteoric path as Arsenal’s Max Dowman.
Dowman has quickly become the talk of English football after breaking into Mikel Arteta’s first team at just 15 years old.
Moreover, the youngster made his debut in Arsenal’s Carabao Cup victory over Brighton before coming off the bench in their 3-0 Champions League win against Slavia Prague.
At the age of 5 years 308 days, Max Dowman became the youngest Champions League player of all time.
Now, Manchester United are eyeing a move for the next Max Dowman. Chelsea are also monitoring and are in the race for the 16-year-old.
According to Football Insider, the Red Devils have joined several Premier League sides in pursuit of Jeremy Monga from Leicester City.
As per the same report, United could have an advantage if they move quickly, with a deal possible for as little as £2 million.
Thus, for United, this potential signing aligns perfectly with their renewed commitment to developing homegrown talent under Ruben Amorim’s management.
