Manchester United leading the race to sign 19-goal Serbian striker
Manchester United are leading the race to sign Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic this summer, Corriere dello Sport claims.
The Serbian has been in fine form for the Serie A outfit this term, registering 19 goals from just 33 league appearances.
Liverpool and AC Milan have been heavily linked with his services, but it is now reported that United are leading the pursuit.
Vlahovic's deal with La Viola expires in two years' time, and the club are looking for around £35m to sanction his sale this summer.
The Red Devils are in constant contact with the player's representatives, and could make a formal approach in the coming weeks.
United are yet to convince Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani to extend his contract, which expires at the end of the campaign.
Regardless of this, they could pursue a young striker with potential. Vlahovic has emerged as the top target for them.
Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal have also been credited with an interest in the 21-year-old, who has managed seven caps for Serbia.
