Manchester United have requested the asking price for Bologna winger Dan Ndoye following his impressive performances at the 2024 European Championship, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.
In recent weeks, the Red Devils have been in talks with teammate Joshua Zirkzee’s representative, and they remain optimistic about landing his signature ahead of AC Milan.
The club are also interested in his teammate Ndoye, who scored the opening goal in Switzerland’s 1-1 draw against Germany at Euro 2024.
United have reportedly ‘tested the waters’ for him. They requested information regarding the valuation for his potential transfer from the Serie A outfit.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS know the player well as he was previously with Nice and Lausanne.
A new centre-forward and centre-back are among the top priorities for the club this summer, but they could also be eyeing a right-sided winger with potential to improve.
Ndoye could be a solution for the Red Devils. The Switzerland international netted only three goals and five assists from 38 appearances last term, but he has been a revelation at the Euros.
The 23-year-old scored against Germany and was denied a goal against Scotland by a marginal offside decision. Transfermarkt values him at £12 million, but Bologna could demand much more.
The Serie A outfit qualified for the Champions League against the odds last term. They finished fifth in the league but were awarded the extra spot in the competition through the co-efficient ranking.
Several Bologna players including Zirkzee, Jhon Lucumi and Riccardo Calafiori have also been linked with exits. The Italian club will unlikely let go of Ndoye on the cheap after his Euro 2024 displays.
