Man Utd ready to move for next young gun as scouts watch €20m-rated Greek striker Manchester United are being tipped to bring in another young talent in the form of Greece striker Christos Tzolis.

The Red Devils recruited young attackers Facundo Pellistri and Amad Diallo last summer, with the latter only arriving last month. There is a clear recruitment drive at United to try at and sign Europe’s top young talent, and Tzolis also fits the bill.

Lingard hints at Solskjaer disharmony

United were happy to sanction the England midfielder’s exit after David Moyes asked about a short-term loan.

Asked why he chose to took on a new challenge at West Ham, Lingard told BT Sport: “First and foremost I’m here to play, win and help the team, so hopefully I can do that and we’ll see where we’re at come the end of the season.

“It’s about playing with a smile on my face and enjoying my football and getting back to the old Jesse.” Read more…
