‘Big chance’ third Bayern player signs for Manchester United this January

‘Big chance’ third Bayern player signs for Manchester United this January

Manchester United may not have yet had their fill of Bayern Munich players in the market judging by the latest update from Christian Falk.

Old Trafford-linked Leon Goretzka (Football Transfers) is understood to be committed to turning his career in Munich around. However, events may very well conspire to see him pushed out of the club in the January transfer window.

The Red Devils have held a prior interest in the 29-year-old. On top of that, it’s understood ‘there’s a big chance’ they would be able to complete a move for the German international in the winter if they were to try and test Max Eberl’s resolve.
