Manchester United intensifies his efforts to sign the star of Olympique Lyonnais, Rayan Cherki, aimed at securing the 21 -year -old attack midfielder, according to Fichajes.
Cherki, who had an impressive 2024-2025 season with 12 goals and 20 assists in 44 appearances, is considered a key addition to strengthen United Creative options.
The Red Devils are facing the competition of the Premier League teams such as Liverpool, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa, as well as the Bundesliga Borussia Dortmund club.

However, reports suggest that Man United directs the race, with concrete talks between the club and Lyon.
Cherki reported his intention to move on and the financial difficulties of Lyon can facilitate a transfer for the young Frenchman.
The Red Devils desperately need to attack additions this summer. After their defeat in the Europa League final against Tottenham, it is clear that they will target movements to attack players who can add goals and creativity to the team.
Cherki is a player who can play as an attacker midfielder as well as as a right winger.
The manager of United, Ruben Amorim, wishes to integrate Cherki in his tactical configuration, potentially associating him with the attacker entering Matheus Cunha into an reworked attacker training.

The Frenchman was brilliant against United in the quarterfinals of the Europa League and scored in Old Trafford, showing his quality to fans who would like to have a player like him in their team.
With new additions that should arrive at the club this summer, Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee are faced with an uncertain future at the club and the two could be unloaded to make way for new signatures.
Without European football next season and a limited transfer budget, Cherki would be ideal for them because it could be available in a good deal.
