Freiburg striker Igor Matanovic would jump at the opportunity to join Manchester United next year, according to Caught Offside.
The Red Devils explored the possibility of signing the Croatian this summer, but they did not proceed with a formal approach for his services.
Matanovic has had a fine start to the season with six goals and two assists and it is now claimed that he is attracting plenty of Premier League interest.
Arsenal and Chelsea have recently joined the player’s pursuit, but it is claimed that Matanovic could give preference to the Red Devils first.
United are unlikely to pursue a deal in January, while Freiburg are likewise prepared to wait until the summer before selling Matanovic.
Matanovic was valued at around £30m during the summer, but it is reported that he could cost as much as £50m at the end of the season.
United are expected to part ways with Joshua Zirkzee to make way for a new striker. The Dutchman is on the radar of several Serie A sides.
