Man United and Tottenham Hotspur are leading the race for talented youngster. The player has 31 goal contributions this season and will be very likely available in the summer market.
The star in question here is Rayan Cherki who plays for Lyon. He has came through their academy to establish himself as a regular starter. He is only 21 years old but has been Lyon’s leader in the attack. Cherki has scored 12 goals and picked 19 assists so far this season.
Cherki can play as right winger, attacking midfielder, striker and even as central midfielder. Lyon would have loved to keep such a player for a long time. But, they are on the verge of breaching PSR. If they don’t raise funds soon, they will be relegated to Ligue 2.
Hence, Cherki is likely to be available in the summer transfer window. He is wanted by multiple clubs across whole Europe. But, as of now he is very heavily linked with a move to Premier League. Two English giants are believed to he leading the race for talented 21 year old.
Man United & Tottenham leading the race for Cherki
According to Caught Offside, United and Spurs are leading the race for Cherki. The 21 year old can be a great fit for any of these clubs. The report also states that the English giants will need to pay around €30 million to €35 million for Cherki.
United and Spurs are both having a very tough season right now. Both clubs are in Europe League sem-finals. But, the situation is far worse for them in the Premier League. Hence, both of them are headed for a busy summer window where there will be many changes.
Cherki has already proved himself on the English soil. He was there at Old Trafford to face United in Europa League. The 21 year old was tering up United’s defence. He ended the match by scoring a goal but was unable to defeat the Red Devils.
