Lyon Champions League hero Moussa Dembele keen to hear from Man United

Lyon striker Moussa Dembele is keen to hear from Manchester United this summer.

The Manchester Evening News says Dembele is “open” to a move to Manchester United this summer, reports claim.

The Frenchman was on United’s radar last summer, as they attempted to replace Romelu Lukaku.

And his stock hasn’t fallen in the season since, having scored 24 goals for Lyon.

He’ll have already endeared himself to the Old Trafford support too, having downed neighbours Manchester City with a late brace in the recent Champions League quarter-final.

And the 24-year-old is “open” to the transfer, although is not “desperate” to leave Lyon.

The Ligue 1 side defied the odds in the Champions League, beating Juventus and Man City before finally succumbing to Bayern Munich in the semi-finals.

But despite this miracle run, they will NOT be in next season’s competition, or even the Europa League, after finishing seventh in the curtailed French season.

And while club legend and sporting director Juninho remains confident in the club’s future, the 45-year-old has admitted that there will be “departures” this summer.
