Manchester United interested in Lyon attacker?

Fekir on Manchester United radar

Manchester United interested in Lyon attacker?

30 June 2018 - 17:19

Manchester United have reportedly emerged as potential suitors to sign Nabil Fekir from Lyon this summer.

  • Mauricio Pochettino confirms fresh injury blow for Chelsea star
  • Arsenal want to make four marquee signings this summer

  • The France international was heavily tipped to join Liverpool earlier in the transfer window but the move was cancelled at the final hurdle with the Reds concerned about his knee cartilage issues.

    Fekir has since been with the France national team for the World Cup but this has not ceased the speculation with United being the latest club to be linked with his signature.

    According to Le Progres, Jurgen Klopp's side are yet to make a fresh attempt for the Lyon captain but they could potentially face competition from the Red Devils.

    Regardless of this, Les Gones are said to have increased their transfer valuation from £53m to £62m and the failure to match their price tag may witness the attacker stay put at the club.

    Fekir came as a late substitute for France during Saturday's round of 16 game versus Argentina which they won by a 4-3 scoreline. Kylian Mbappe starred with two goals and an assist.
