Manchester United now favourites to sign Algerian talent Rayan Cherki

English Premier League side, Manchester United are leading the race to sign France attacker of Algerian descent, Rayan Cherki.

The versatile midfielder who excels in attack has been in sensational form at Olympique Lyon in the 2024/25 football season.

As a result, a lot of top European clubs are considering a summer coup to poach him from the French Ligue 1 side.

According to information gathered, Manchester City are also monitoring the attacking midfielder.

As reported by Africasoccer last month, German Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund also want the player.

The Black and Yellow outfit has long been linked with a move to sign the talented playmaker.

Last summer, Dortmund were linked with a move to sign Rayan Cherki, but no official contact was made.

However, in the winter transfer window, the Germans contacted Olympique Lyon over a potential move to sign the midfielder.

It is now clear that there will be a bidding war for the talented player in the summer transfer window.

Although Manchester United are leading the race to sign the youngster, it will be difficult for the Red Devils to beat competition from the other interested clubs.
