Manchester United and Chelsea launch enquiries over Moussa Marega transfer

Manchester United and Chelsea have both made contact over a move for Porto star Moussa Marega, according to reports.

       Porto completed a move for Marega back in 2016 and the 26-year-old forward was sent a loan to Vitoria Sport Clube ahead of the 2016/17 campaign where he scored 14 goals in 31 appearances.


His impressive form earned him a recall to Porto and the Mali attacker has had a barnstorming start this season, scoring 12 goals for the Portuguese giants.

Foot Mercato suggests Premier League giants United and Chelsea have both been alerted to Marega’s goalscoring exploits.

It’s claimed both clubs have launched enquiries over the potential availability of the striker in the January transfer window.

     Antonio Conte is on the hunt for attacking reinforcements at Stamford Bridge, with Michy Batshuayi failing to impress the Italian as Alvaro Morata’s understudy.

Meanwhile, Jose Mourinho is on the lookout for new recruits up front following an injury to Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
