Manchester United are reportedly interested in highly-rated Brazilian forward Evanilson, who currently plays for FC Porto.
According to HITC, the Red Devils are one of several Premier League clubs that have held talks with the player’s agent as they consider potential attacking reinforcements.
While Manchester United and other top clubs like Liverpool, Tottenham, and Arsenal have expressed interest in the 24-year-old, it is Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest who have taken more concrete steps toward securing his signature.
Both clubs are reportedly keen to bring in Evanilson, with Bournemouth identifying him as a potential replacement for Dominic Solanke, who just completed his move to Tottenham in a big money move.
