Manchester United continues to explore options to strengthen their front line for the upcoming season and has set its sights on Jean-Philippe Mateta. The Crystal Palace forward has caught the eye of Old Trafford, who may pursue his signing in the summer market.
The 29-year-old French footballer has been a key player in the Palace's lineup, attracting interest from several clubs. However, United appears to be in the best position to secure his services. The 'red devils' management sees Mateta as a forward who can bring physicality and goals to the squad, a profile they deem necessary to complement their attack.
His price would be high but affordable for Manchester United
Nevertheless, the transfer won't be easy or cheap. Selhurst Park is not willing to make his departure easy, and the player's value would range between €35-40 million. An amount that Manchester United would be willing to negotiate, although there have been no official contacts between the parties yet, as noted by 'The Sun'.
The interest in Mateta reflects the club's intention to bolster its squad after an inconsistent season. If his signing is finalized, the French forward would take a leap in his career and become a significant piece in the 'red devils' revamped project.
