Man United, Liverpool And Tottenham In Battle For Ligue 1 Star

Manchester United are reportedly ready to battle Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur for the signing of Olympique Lyonnais midfielder, Rayan Cherki.

According to Caught Offside, United are interested in Cherki. The Lyon attacker is also a target for Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur. For about €22 million, the fallen Ligue 1 giants are prepared to let go of the French prodigy.

Since making his debut as a teenage star in the first team at Lyon, Cherki has emerged as one of the top promising talents in his native country.

Despite their tumultuous relationship over the past six months, the player has advanced significantly since making his senior debut for the Ligue 1 team.

The 21-year-old has had a strong 2024–25 season in spite of Lyon’s problems both on and off the pitch. In 24 appearances in all competitions, Cherki has helped contribute to 13 goals, scoring five goals and dishing out eight assists.

A number of Premier League giants have taken notice of the Ligue 1 club’s predicament, and Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Liverpool are all fighting for the Frenchman’s services.

Liverpool have had their eye on the French attacking potential for a while.

According to recent sources, the Reds are willing to spend €22 million to capture the Lyon star after the Ligue 1 team were provisionally relegated to the second division as a result of financial misconduct.
