Man United keeping tabs on deadly 19-G/A winger after breakout campaign in France | OneFootball

Manchester United are interested in signing the Lyon winger Afonso Moreira, according to A Bola.

The 21-year-old has been quite impressive for the French outfit this season, with 19 goal contributions across all competitions.

Afonso Moreira asking price revealed

He has a contract with them until 2030, and he could cost around €25 million in the summer. The talented young attacker could be a very useful acquisition for Manchester United, and he would be a long-term investment.

They need more quality in the final third, and the 21-year-old will add pace, flair and goals to the team. He is capable of operating on either flank, and he could be the ideal utility man for Manchester United.

He is a young player with a lot of potential, and Manchester United could groom him properly. They have done well to nurture young players in the past, and they could play a key role in his development.

Moreira could be tempted

The opportunity to play in the Premier League will be tempting for the young attacker. However, he must first secure a defined role on the team before joining the club. Sitting on the bench at Manchester United would be detrimental to his development.

The asking price is reasonable for a player of his potential, and he could easily justify the investment in future. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United follow up on their interest with an official offer at the end of the season.

They have secured Champions League qualification, and they need to add more depth to the team this summer. Adding more quality in the wide areas would be a wise decision. They should look to invest in another striker as well.
