Manchester United have reportedly become the frontrunners to sign Crystal Palace winger, Michael Olise in the summer transfer window.
The Red Devils have long been credited with interest to sign the French talent.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s arrival at the club has raised expectations for United to bolster their squad during the transfer window.
According to Football Transfers as reported by Caught Offside, the Red Devils are the top contenders to sign the talented Premier League winger.
The 22-year-old has made just 19 league appearances this season, and he scored 10 goals and provided 6 assists.
The biggest teams in England have taken notice of his excellent play. The publication also reported that Newcastle United are another club said to be interested in signing the player.
The player who assisted the Eagles in finishing in the top half of the Premier League standings is being pursued by Man United ahead of Eddie Howe’s team.
Olise has been a regular player for the Premier League team since manager Oliver Glasner took over. He has improved his output in the final third and become a more lethal finisher.
The report claims that Olise, who was a Man United supporter growing up, is excited about switching to Old Trafford.
He has a release clause in his contract from last year that is worth approximately €70 million. So it looks like he will be leaving Selhurst Park soon to make a major move this summer.
