Sky reporter confirms midfield powerhouse is on the list as Man United eye move

Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka has been linked with a move away from the club in recent weeks.

The 29-year-old is reportedly a target for Manchester United. Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg has now revealed that the midfield powerhouse is on the list as the Old Trafford outfit looks to reinforce their midfield unit. 

Manchester United need to bring in a combative presence in the middle of the park and the German international would be an exceptional addition. He will add power, presence and defensive cover to the side. He could be the ideal partner for players like Kobbie Mainoo. They are reportedly keeping tabs on his contract situation.

The midfielder has fallen down the pecking order at the German club, and he is no longer a regular starter for them. A move away from Germany would be ideal for him. Manchester United could be an exciting destination for him, especially if they are willing to provide him with regular game time.

The midfielder has a contract with Bayern Munich until 2026, and he could be available for a reasonable price at the end of the season. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United are willing to take up the opportunity to secure his signature.

Leon Goretzka not keen on January exit

Plettenberg claims that the midfielder has no intention of leaving the German club during the January transfer window. Therefore, it is fair to assume that any move will have to wait until the end of the season. It remains to be seen whether Manchester United are prepared to wait around for him and sign him in the summer of 2025.

The midfielder is at the peak of his powers, and he has the physicality to adapt to English football as well. He could prove to be a useful acquisition for the English giants if they can get the deal done.
