Moussa Dembele (ex Celtic striker)

Looks like he could be coming in with Lukaku going out. Plenty of good sources (including French football news and L'equipe) breaking news that we've bid 40m Euros for the Lyon striker. Still just 22 as well.

I'd be pretty happy with this tbh. Good age and is a real handful. Him, Rashford n Martial competing for the striker places will do for me. With Greenwood also involved.

Thoughts?

That may be, but Manchester United clearly don’t care too much having valuable assets playing in rotation.

There's a real lack of quality strikers in the market. Icardi is probably the best striker who is said to be available but the baggage he comes with is simply not worth it.

Jovic would have been great but looks like Madrid got there first.

If we don't sign Moussa Dembele I haven't got a clue who we'll go for. We might just end up keeping Lukaku at this rate.

If you're looking for someone to replace Lukaku but play 2nd choice to Rashford or rotate, there will be some good strikers who are better than Dembele at probably half of the price if you look correctly.

Who the feck watches Celtic or Lyon regularly enough to judge Dembele, bunch of liars on here

It’s okay to not know everything.

How good is this guy?

I don’t think anyone has lied about how regulary they’ve watched him, Mike.

Think we have seen him enough to be fair. More than likes of Bruno Fernandes etc.

He's not a world beater who is going to take us to the PL title. He would be a decent to good forward to replace Lukaku though.

I don't think we will be trying to sign a instant first 11 number 9 this summer. I think there's faith in Rashford n Martial at the club. We need to improve the supply lines to them really.

To be honest, if Lukaku does go, we could do with a striker who offers something a bit different to what we have. Wouldn’t have to be a starter, but someone with a skill set Rashford & Martial don’t have. Wouldn’t be against Mitrovic for example.

Mitrovic would love it at United with the players we have crossing it.
