Manchester United at the head of the battle for strikers 21 goals and 12 assists this season
Manchester United's pursuit of Benfica striker Gonalo Ramos remains alive in the Portuguese media. The rumor has resurfaced in a report by Record, which also mentions Benfica's interest in Getafe striker Eres Inal as they search for a replacement for Ramos. The young Portuguese forward is attracting interest from several English clubs, with Manchester United reportedly leading the race for his signature.
Record expresses confidence that Ramos will leave Benfica this summer, despite the club's previous efforts to retain him during past transfer windows. The striker has been in impressive form, contributing 26 goals and 12 assists for Benfica this season, and has played a key role in their pursuit of the league title.
The links between Manchester United and Ramos have been strong since the winter transfer window. Although nothing materialized in January, reports have continued to suggest United's interest in the young talent. Last month, Record even reported that the Red Devils had made a recent attempt to sign him. With Benfica now actively searching for a new striker, the possibility of Ramos joining Manchester United remains open.
However, Manchester United is also preparing to make significant investments in other targets as billionaires Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Qatar Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani battle for control of the club. Despite this competition, Ramos is seen as a brilliant prospect for the future, having excelled for Benfica and even represented Portugal in the World Cup, where he scored a hat-trick against Switzerland in the last-16.
A potential deal between Manchester United and Benfica for Ramos could be worth between 70 million and 100 million, including add-ons. Such a transfer would surpass United's current transfer record set in 2016 when they signed Paul Pogba from Juventus for 89.3 million. Ramos' emergence as one of Europe's most promising forwards has caught the attention of Dutch coach Erik ten Hag, known for his ability to develop young talents, who is keen to work with the 21-year-old striker.
As the pursuit of Ramos continues, Manchester United will be hoping to secure his services as they strengthen their attacking options. The young Portuguese talent has demonstrated his goal-scoring ability and potential, making him an exciting prospect for the future.
