Manchester United have learned that it would cost them £52million to sign Christopher Nkunku in the summer, according to reports.
United are set for a massive summer with Erik ten Hag in line to take over as manager and the Dutchman will have a big job on his hands in turning the squad around. Much of that will start in the transfer market and, while signing a midfielder is the biggest priority and a new centre-back is also being targeted, United will have to replenish their attacking options.
Edinson Cavani, Paul Pogba, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard are all set to leave for nothing when their contracts expire at the end of the season and questions also remain over the futures of Cristiano Ronaldo, Anthony Martial and even Marcus Rashford. Reinforcements in forward areas will be a necessity which had led to the links with RB Leipzig's Nkunku.
