Manchester United are interested in signing Borussia Dortmund's Donyell Malen for around €50 million. Malen, who has eight goals and two assists this season, is seen as an upgrade to United's attack. Ruud van Nistelrooy's influence could be crucial in the deal, but the potential appointment of Ruben Amorim as United's manager creates uncertainty about Van Nistelrooy's role. Dortmund may also be hesitant to sell mid-season.

Malen is with 13 goals and five assists Dortmund's most reliable offensive force. Also the biggest hope for a mega fee of up to 50 million euros through a transfer to the English Premier League. Manchester United and Liverpool are just two prominent clubs that have recently been watching him.
