Manchester United have reportedly contacted Atlanta regarding the possibility of signing their young star Amad Traore.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team have made Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho their main target of the summer, but it is understood that that hasn’t stopped them from other deals.
Traore hasn’t played much for Atlanta, in fact he’s played just 24 minutes of Serie A football.
However, he is highly rated and became the youngest Serie A player to score in his Serie A debut, so it was 24 valuable minutes.
The 18-year-old appears to be an investment in the future, which is the kind of signing Solskjaer is tending for.
According to the Manchester Evening News, fans need not worry as the Red Devils do not see Traore as an alternative to Sancho and are eager to see if Atlanta is willing to sell him, having made contact.
Even if Solskjaer does sign him as a squad player, it’s hard to think about where he might fit in as it looks like the team would be overloaded at that point.
If Manchester United signs Sancho, that would mean that there are also Daniel James, Juan Mata and Mason Greenwood, who could play on the right wing.
If a transfer is made, he may be an under-23 player rather than a first team star.
New Manchester United star Donny van de Beek will be the 13th Dutchman to play for the senior team. But how much do you know about the other 12? Take our questionnaire below to find out.
