WHAT HAPPENED?
In the current transfer window, the Red Devils are prepared to battle Arsenal for the services of 26-year-old Ukrainian winger Viktor Tsygankov, who is now playing for Girona. According to AS, Erik ten Hag has already communicated with the youngster, letting him know that Old Trafford is where he wants to play next season.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
The standout attacker had a great 2023–24 season with Girona, and the club is eager to keep him on staff. Throughout his 34 appearances in all competitions, Tsygankov racked up eight goals and seven assists. The player, who is now on a long vacation from Euro 2024, is anticipated to receive a new contract offer from the Catalan club.
DID YOU KNOW?
The Red Devils are apparently ready to activate the release clause in the attacker’s current contract, which is set at €30 million (£25 million), even though they have not yet made an official bid for him.
WHAT NEXT FOR MANCHESTER UNITED?
Ten Hag’s team is all set to leave for Norway, where on Monday they will play Rosenborg in their first preseason friendly.
