Manchester United are reportedly keeping tabs on the Red Bull Salzburg midfielder Oscar Gloukh.
According to Fussball News, Manchester United are considering a move for the 20-year-old attacking midfielder and it will be interesting to see if they come forward with an offer to sign him at the end of the season.
The Israeli midfielder has been outstanding for the Austrian club since joining them and his performances have attracted the attention of the Red Devils. Manchester United are reportedly looking at a long-term replacement for Bruno Fernandes and the 20-year-old has been identified as an alternative.
The highly-rated attacking midfielder has done quite well for the Austrian outfit and he has the technical attributes to do well in the Premier League as well. He will help create goalscoring opportunities for his teammates with his passing and vision in the final third. Furthermore, he is capable of scoring goals consistently as well.
Man United move could be ideal for Oscar Gloukh
The midfielder picked up nine goals and 18 assists in all competitions last season and his numbers are likely to improve when he is playing in a better team alongside top class players. A move to the Premier League could accelerate his development and help him improve further.
Manchester United are one of the biggest clubs in the world and the opportunity to play for them can be quite attractive for most players. The 20-year-old will certainly be attracted to the idea of joining them.
Red Bull Salzburg have a proven track record of selling prodigious young talents for the right price, and Gloukh could be made available if the right offer is presented as well.
Manchester United are looking to build a side capable of winning major trophies in the near future and the 20-year-old would be a long-term investment for them.
