Manchester United is reportedly considering a bid for Bayern Munich star Robert Lewandowski, according to the latest rumors.
With only 18 months left on his current contract with the Bavarian giants, the Polish striker's future has become a topic of discussion after he recently stated that he is "open to everything."
According to 90min.com, Lewandowski is also aware of Bayern's interest in Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland. The Norwegian is considered to be a logical successor to the 33-year-old. The Bavarian giants, however, will face stiff competition from PSG, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Manchester City, who have all expressed an interest in acquiring Haaland.
Lewandowski's management are now exploring options for their client, and have reached out to a few clubs, including Premier League clubs.
Manchester United is one of them, and the Red Devils will look into signing the Polish striker this summer if he becomes available. United has requested that Lewandowski's agents keep them updated on the situation.
Manchester City, Arsenal, Aston Villa, and Newcastle United are among the clubs that have been notified of the Bayern Munich striker's availability and might pose a serious threat. Lewandowski's future could be decided this summer, and if he is open to a move, United will try to be first in line to sign him.
During the summer transfer window, Manchester United will be hunting for offensive reinforcements.
Manchester United has struggled to score goals this season and will be looking for a new striker.
With Edinson Cavani expected to go and Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood's futures uncertain, the Red Devils will be on the hunt for a new striker to lead the assault.
Despite his age, Lewandowski will offer United with a reliable goal-scoring option. This season, the Polish striker has already scored 28 goals in 24 league appearances for Bayern. In the Champions League, he has scored nine goals for the Bavarian giants.
Ralf Rangnick, Manchester United's temporary manager who is scheduled to take up a consultant post after the season, is a great fan of Lewandowski and could order the Red Devils to pursue him.
The final decision, though, may be in the hands of the club's next manager.
