Manchester United are targeting a move for Christopher Nkunku after Ralf Rangnick was left stunned that the club didn't have the RB Leipzig star on their radar.
The Frenchman is lighting up the Bundesliga this season, scoring 27 times in 43 appearances, including an impressive hat-trick against Manchester City in the Champions League earlier in the campaign. Nkunku was called up to the France squad for a double header against Ivory Coast and South Africa last month with Didier Deschamps tempted to use the 24-year-old at the World Cup in Qatar at the end of the year.
The forward has attracted attention from several European clubs including United given Rangnick's previous relationship with the former Paris Saint-Germain youngster. The Old Trafford interim boss was Red Bull's head of sport and development when Leipzig signed Nkunku in the summer of 2019.
