Manchester United 'send scouts' to watch Brighton star Kaoru Mitoma and more transfer rumours

Manchester United are reportedly in the race to sign Brighton ace Kaoru Mitoma, with the Japan winger also attracting interest from several other European sides.

According to The Sun, the Reds are monitoring the Seagulls forward and have sent scouts to watch Mitoma already this campaign. The 25-year-old has been impressive for Roberto De Zerbi's side this term, registering eight goals and six assists in 26 games in all competitions.

It is thought that Arsenal, Real Madrid and Manchester City are also keen on the attacker. He arrived at Brighton from Kawasaki Frontale for just £2.7million in 2021, with reports suggesting that he is now valued at £35m. However, the Seagulls reportedly have no interest in selling the player.
