Liverpool stunned as Manchester United steal 'mini Mo Salah' in transfer twist

Liverpool are keen to improve their attack in the upcoming transfer window, and the club are considering several strikers and wide forwards. However, the Reds are now facing the threat of one of their top targets ending up at Manchester United this summer.

Arne Slot wants to reconfigure his attack and end the team’s overdependence on Mo Salah, who has again emerged as the club’s top goalscorer this season.

The Liverpool manager is in the market for a top number 9, but he is also looking to add wide forwards to ease the burden on his Egyptian maestro ahead of the new campaign.

The Reds are looking for Premier League-proven talent, but one such target could now be on his way to Manchester United in the upcoming transfer window.

Manchester United table bid for a top Reds target

Liverpool have been keeping tabs on Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo, who has often been compared with Salah for the way he operates in the final third.

The Merseyside giants have been weighing up an offer for the forward, but it has been claimed that Manchester United have made the first move to sign him.

Ruben Amorim is looking to change his underperforming attack next season, and the Brentford forward has emerged as a top target for the Manchester United manager.

According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, Manchester United have tabled a deal worth £55m for a forward who has scored 19 times this season.

Manchester United believe that it is good money for a striker who has performed at Brentford and is now looking to step up in his career.

The forward will leave the London club this summer, and a move to Manchester United will appeal to him, especially if they qualify for the Champions League.
