Manchester United are looking to sign Ayoze Perez from Newcastle United in the January transfer window. According to reports by Metro, Louis van Gaal is keen add in a forward player as Memphis Depay and Wayne Rooney haven’t impressed the United boss in the opening nine games of the Premier League.
The Red Devils are currently at the third spot on the table with majority of goals coming from Juan Mata and the 19-year-old Frenchman Anthony Martial. United are keen to bring more players to Old Trafford, who may give United’s Dutch master more options in the attack.
The 22-year-old Spaniard joined Newcastle last summer for £1.5m from Tenerife. Last season, he netted seven goals in the league and has attracted attention of the big clubs in the English league. According to Newcastle Chronicle, Van Gaal sent scouts in the summer to monitor Ayoze’s progress. Ayoze has been one of the best players at Newcastle, who are currently struggling in the relegation zone.
Tottenham are also reportedly interested in signing the Spanish forward as they are hoping to add a striking partner for Harry Kane in the January transfer window.
