After missing Borussia Dortmund's Jadon Sancho and Fiorentina winger Federico Chiesa, Roma Star Cengiz Under has been a recent interest for Manchester United as a cheaper alternative according to express.co.uk.
Since leaving Manchester City, Jadon Sancho, has registered 34 goals and offered 43 assists for Borussia Dortmund but still remains Manchester United's number 1 choice in the summer transfer market.
However, Sancho's £115million price together with the unsure transfer landscape has made United's executive Ed Woodward seek for a cheaper option which Roma star Cengiz Under could be a suitable alternative.
Under, Turkey international with 20 cap has registered 17 goals and offered 12 assists in 85 games ever since joining the Serie A side for an £11.6m valuation from turkish Basaksehir in July 2017.
Meanwhile, Corriere dello Sport reported that Roma are seeking for profitable deals this summer.
Manchester United have been in talk with former Tottenham technical Director Franco Baldini, the advisor to billionaire James Pallotta according to the report.
Former Tottenham Technical Director Franco Baldini, was among in Chris Smalling's lengthy season loan move to Roma last year.
Baldini is said to discussed Under's future with several Premier League clubs - including Ole Solskjaer's side.
Roma is expected to be ready to sell their sought-after winger for around £26.8m.
As Turkey’s ex national team boss Mircea Lucescu in 2018 gave his prediction for Under after comparing him to Liverpool star Mohamed Salah.
Meanwhile, Manchester United will have to fight with a few of their rivals over Under's signature with Mikel Arteta and Carlo Ancelotti as both club boss are showing interest.
Under keeps developing every day. His future looks really bright. His playing style and quality remind me of Mohamed Salah," Mircea Lucescu told Turkish-football.
It's worth comparing that Salah was like at Cengiz’s current age and there are five years between them so obviously there is a difference in experience.
