Euro Paper Talk: Solskjaer signs off Man Utd signing of flop Prem striker; pricey French teenager on Liverpool radar Man Utd are ready to push through a shock deal for a €25m striker, while Liverpool remain in the hunt for a €40m-rated Rennes star despite claims he wants to move elsewhere, according to Monday’s Euro Paper Talk. SOLSKJAER CONNECTION KEY IN MAN UTD RAID FOR SORLOTH Manchester United are readying a surprise move for Norway striker Alexander Sorloth when the transfer window opens, according to reports in Turkey. The striker is currently on loan at Trabzponspor from Crystal Palace and has been in prolific form this season, having netted 25 times in all competitions so far this campaign. That’s in stark contrast to his time at Selhurst Park where the Eagles moved him on after he scored just once in 16 appearances for the club since a £9m move from Danish side Midtjylland. And while Trabzponsor have the option to make the move a permanent €6m deal when the window opens, Fanatik claims they are ready to make an instant profit by selling the striker to Manchester United. They claim United scouts have get a very close watch on Sorloth in recent months and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has now given the green light for United to bring in the attacker when the window reopens. And while there is no mention of a fee, previous reports have stated that Trabzponsor would be seeking around €25m for the hitman, offering them an instant 400% profit on their investment. As per the report, Sorloth is also wanted by AC Milan, Napoli and Bayern Munich this summer and are too also weighing up approaches. But it’s suggested the 6ft 5ins frontman feels he has unfinished business in the Premier League. However, the report, also covered by Sport Witness, has cast doubt on the link with United by suggesting it merely be borne from the fact that both Sorloth and Solskjaer are Norwegian. Either way, Fanatik are convinced Sorloth remains a United target and believe he could be brought in as further back-up at Old Trafford; that inspite of growing reports that claim United are growing in confidence that they will also soon seal a permanent move for Odion Ighalo. United landing the Norwegian could be a case of third time lucky for Solskjaer, after he saw moves for his fellow countrymen Erling Haaland and Joshua King also fail to get finalised.
