Youssoufa Moukoko is a forward for Borussia Dortmund and Germany. Premier League rivals Manchester United and Liverpool have joined forces with Chelsea in their pursuit of Moukoko’s signature.

Moukoko, who is only 18 years old, is considered to be one of the most intriguing young stars in football due to the fact that he has already made more than 50 appearances for Dortmund and has made his debut for his country.

It would appear that the Cameroonian sensation is following in the footsteps of players like as Erling Haaland, Jadon Sancho, and Jude Bellingham, who all excelled for Dortmund prior to drawing interest from some of the most prestigious teams in Europe.

As a result of Moukoko’s impressive play in the Bundesliga, the German national team selected the adolescent to compete in the World Cup. Moukoko made his World Cup debut in Germany’s match against Japan in the group stage.

It is possible that Moukoko will depart Borussia Dortmund without having to pay a transfer fee the following summer; hence, the German giants will contemplate selling him in January if they are unable to sign him to a new long-term deal.

It was claimed earlier this week that Chelsea were “hopeful” of signing Moukoko and were considering making a move for the extremely skilled forward in January. The move was rumored to be under consideration.

However, according to The Times, Manchester United and Liverpool are both firmly in the hunt to recruit Moukoko. These teams compete with Chelsea in the Premier League.

Because the athlete does not want to hit a wall in his progression, he is hesitant about quitting Borussia Dortmund in the hope of advancing his career elsewhere.

However, a player who is projected to be Germany’s future starting striker would likely find it difficult to refuse a lucrative offer to move to a club that is among the most successful in the Premier League.

Before Armando Broja sustained an injury that would terminate his season, Chelsea was trying to strengthen Graham Potter’s offensive options. However, this setback could speed up Todd Boehly’s ambitions to make a trade.

Manchester United are looking for a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo and have been linked with several players, including World Cup stars Goncalo Ramos and Cody Gakpo.

Luis Diaz is expected to miss around another three months of action for Liverpool, which would leave Jurgen Klopp’s squad thin as he works to lead the Anfield team back up the Premier League table.

At a news conference held in Germany a month ago, Moukoko responded to the growing rumors that were circulating about his future by saying, “I feel extremely comfortable in Dortmund, and I feel the confidence of the coach.” You won’t know the outcome of my decision over whether or not to stay until the very end.

Erik ten Hag evaluates Glazer’s announcement

Erik ten Hag hopes a takeover will provide Manchester United additional transfer funds.

The Glazer family has controlled United since May 2005, however on November 22, they said they were willing to selling the club as part of “a process to examine strategic alternatives for the club”.

With United valued at £6billion, the Glazers are open to additional investment or a sale.

United spent a club record £225.4million on five summer acquisitions, and last week’s financial reports showed the Glazers had not taken their semi-annual dividend.

Ten Hag told British media, “Richard Arnold told me.” “The Glazers are transparent. I was notified by the club but am not discussing this with the owners. More investment will be helpful, according to my information.

“We discussed our culture. We discussed aims, ambitions, and culture, and Arnold said it won’t change but will improve because more money will be available for this initiative.

I met them. I’ve spoken to them before and after my appointment, but we don’t talk much. We talked about working together and achieving our goals, but especially with Richard.”

In October 2021, a Saudi Arabian corporation bought Newcastle, and Abu Dhabi owns Manchester City, four-time winners. United is fifth in the Premier League, behind City and Newcastle.

Since their hostile takeover in May 2005, United have spent over £1bn and won only two titles.

Ten Hag thinks top-flight English football has never been so competitive. I look at the Premier League’s competition: they can all invest.

Seven or eight clubs compete. The competition is tougher than five or 10 years ago because of that transformation.

Newcastle’s coming. Successfully. Value their smart investments. He did well in the appropriate culture. West Ham. Though not in the table, they have massive investment.

“Spurs, City, Liverpool.” Chelsea, don’t mention them. No need to discuss them. Quickly count seven or eight league-competent clubs. Even the worst teams are strong. No easy games.”

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said City, Newcastle, and Qatari-owned Paris Saint-Germain “can do what they want financially” in October, angering them.

United have outbid City for several players both teams have wanted recently. Ten Hag said United could compete financially. “Yes. Not only money, but strategy.

“It’s obvious that without good players, you won’t succeed and meet your goals. You need good players because competition is fierce.”
