Manchester United will 'consider' a move to Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe should the Reds move to new ownership, according to Football Insider (h/t Manchester Evening News).
In the upcoming transfer window, the Old Trafford team will want to strengthen the strikers. To that end, the Manchester team have made it a priority to add a striker next summer.
United already have a few options for the number 9 spot. Tottenham Hotspur stars Harry Kane and Napoli's Victor Osimhen are on the club's radar as priority targets.

However, the Red Devils will "plot" to recruit Mbappe if this club is taken over. The Old Trafford team can choose to bring the 24-year-old player back to MU in the near future.
Currently, Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani of Qatar has confirmed his intention to buy back the Old Trafford team by submitting an offer. However, it remains to be seen if we can manage to divert the French international away from the Parisians.
Mbappe joined PSG in the summer of 2017 from AS Monaco. Over the years, the 24-year-old has played very well for the Ligue 1 side.
In 2018, the French player also won the World Cup in Russia. Then, in 2022, the striker was again a mainstay for Didier Deschamps' side in Qatar. However, the Blues lost the final to Argentina on penalties following Mbappe's hat-trick.
At United, apart from Marcus Rashford, none of our strikers have ever scored. The 25-year-old player has to bear the burden of the Red Devils attack under Erik ten Hag.

Currently, Mbappe seems an unrealistic target for the Old Trafford team, due to our lack of success in recent years. However, it remains to be seen whether the Manchester-based club can land the 24-year-old in the near future.
