Bengaluru, Aug 12: As per reports in England, Manchester United could attempt another raid on Real Madrid before the transfer window ends following the signing of French international defender Raphael Varane.
It
is
believed
that
the
Los
Blancos
are
actively
looking
to
sell
several
of
their
players
as
they
look
to
raise
fund
for
their
dream
move
to
bring
Kylian
Mbappe
to
Santiago
Bernabeu
from
Paris
Saint-Germain.
Luka
Jovic
is
one
of
the
players
placed
on
the
shop
window
by
the
Spanish
capital
club
and
it
is
understood
that
Ole
Gunnar
Solskjaer
is
interested
in
the
former
Red
Star
Belgrade
striker.
Jovic
has
been
a
huge
flop
at
Real
Madrid
and
is
a
strong
contender
for
being
one
of
the
biggest
transfer
letdowns
in
the
glorious
history
of
the
Spanish
club.
The
Serb
burst
on
to
the
scene
at
Eintracht
Frankfurt
before
joining
Real
Madrid
in
a
massive
£52
million
deal
in
2019.
However,
he
has
just
managed
to
score
twice
in
the
famous
white
shirt
in
32
outings
and
his
future
at
the
club
looks
bleak.
It
is
widely
reported
that
Real
Madrid
are
willing
to
take
a
significant
loss
on
the
23-year-old
and
are
happy
to
let
him
leave
for
a
figure
around
£35
million.
Manchester
United
are
not
particularly
short
of
options
up
front
but
can
still
do
with
the
signing
of
a
top-class
centre-forward.
Edinson
Cavani
has
been
more
than
decent
for
them
since
joining
them
on
a
free
transfer
from
Paris
Saint-Germain
last
season
but
he
is
already
34
years
of
age
and
has
had
his
fair
share
of
struggle
with
injuries.
Anthony
Martial,
on
the
other
hand,
has
never
been
consistent
and
his
injury
records
are
far
from
convincing
as
well.
Mason
Greenwood
is
another
option
up
front
but
he
seems
to
be
more
comfortable
in
a
wide
role
and
is
still
very
young.
The
Red
Devils
can
benefit
from
the
addition
of
another
striker
who
can
add
more
firepower
to
their
attack
but
Jovic's
form
over
the
past
couple
of
years
makes
him
far
from
ideal.
He
was
wanted
by
almost
every
club
in
Europe
before
his
move
to
Real
Madrid
but
since
then,
he
has
never
been
able
to
live
up
to
the
expectations.
A
return
of
just
six
goals
in
2000
minutes
of
action
over
the
last
two
years
is
a
poor
record
and
taking
a
chance
with
such
an
underperforming
player
makes
no
sense
from
Manchester
United's
point
of
view.
Jovic
is
still
only
23
years
of
age
and
there
is
still
time
for
him
to
revive
his
career
and
eventually
fulfil
his
potential
but
spending
£35
million
for
his
services
at
such
an
uncertain
time
makes
no
sense
for
Manchester
United.
If
the
price
tag
were
lower
or
the
Red
Devils
could
sanction
a
loan
deal
with
an
option
to
buy,
this
move
would
made
sense
but
at
£35
million,
the
risk
seems
too
big.
Manchester
United
have
made
so
many
poor
signings
over
the
last
few
years
which
has
hurt
the
club
dearly
and
they
must
not
repeat
the
same
mistake
with
the
23-year-old.
