Man United keeping close tabs on Everton forward Richarlison

Manchester United have reportedly outlined their intentions to move for Everton attacker Richarlison ahead of the January transfer window.

United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has placed a strong emphasis on signing a new striker their main target for January following the club’s failure to replace Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku last summer.

Reports have claimed that Juventus’s Mario Mandzukic, Red Bull Salzburg’s Erling Braut Haaland and Bournemouth’s Callum Wilson are among the Man United’s January targets.

According to The Evening Standard, Solskjaer is a big fan of Everton forward Richarlison and has urged the management to monitor his situation ahead of the upcoming window.

The 22-year-old forward has impressed with his performances at Goodison Park, scoring 13 Premier League goals – including one against the Red Devils last season.

However, it remains to be seen whether Everton boss Marco Silva will allow the Brazilian to leave in the mid-point of the season as the Merseyside outfit continue to struggle this season.
