TOP STORY: Man United and Liverpool want Moukoko
Manchester United and Liverpool are set to battle it out for striker Youssoufa Moukoko, according to Sport Bild.
Moukoko has emerged as one of Europe’s most exciting talents this season, with the 17-year-old becoming a mainstay for Borussia Dortmund. His impressive form has seen him notch six goals in the Bundesliga, which has attracted the attention of the two Premier League clubs.
The striker’s deal at Dortmund expires next summer, and while Dortmund have offered a new contract, they have reportedly not heard back from his agent. It could see the Bundesliga club try to do a deal while they can with a transfer fee of £26m suggested by Bild.
Man United, in particular, have been linked with an array of strikers as they look to replace the wantaway Cristiano Ronaldo, and Moukoko may represent a long-term replacement.
Liverpool are likely to be active in the January transfer window, having fallen behind to domestic rivals, and signing the highly sought-after striker would send out a message of intent to the rest of the Premier League and Europe.
Moukoko has not just been in sparkling form for his club, with the Dortmund academy graduate also impressing for Germany’s under-21’s, leading to calls for him to be included in the squad for the World Cup.
