Louis Saha urges Man Utd to sign Brighton attacker

Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha has urged the Red Devils to sign Kaoru Mitoma from Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Red Devils have had a dismal start to the Premier League season and they have picked up only 12 points from the opening eight games.

The club have a huge challenge ahead to finish in the top four and Saha has said that he would like to see Mitoma arrive at Old Trafford.

He said: "I would like to see Mitoma arrive at Old Trafford. He's a very exciting player and he never seems to have any doubt of the ball."

"He'll bombard defences with offensive moves all the time, and I love his energy and the way he plays with a smile."

Mitoma has been a revelation for the Seagulls since his major breakthrough this year. He has been one of the best performing wingers.

This season, he has already made six goal contributions for the Seagulls and there are claims that he could leave Brighton very soon.

Aside from United, Manchester City are also keeping tabs on the Japan international, who has yet to commit to a new contract.

If Mitoma continues his contract stand-off at Brighton, he could be sold for around £60 million in either January or next summer.
