Rayan Cherki is considered one of the best young playmakers in Europe. United made contact with Lyon in January to enquire about the France Under-21 international. A summer move seems likely, with a verbal agreement allowing him to leave for a cut-price fee of €22.5 million.

Manchester United have enquired about Rayan Cherki, who is available for €22 million this transfer window. However, they prefer to wait until the summer to bolster their squad.

Rayan Cherki has been linked with a move to Manchester United. Manchester United previously pursued the France U21 international but were unable to finalise an agreement with Lyon.
