Manchester United might not be able to acquire Kylian Mbappe this summer, but acquiring the PSG player’s heir could be the next best thing.

In Rasmus Hojlund, Erik ten Hag has already found a young forward who is beginning to settle into the Premier League. The Red Devils are still contacting Bayern Munich in hopes of signing another player, despite this.

Florian Plettenberg of Sky Sport Germany reports that United has contacted Die Roten to inquire about a summer transfer for Mathys Tel. Additionally, although playing a little part under Thomas Tuchel, the 18-year-old could find more prominence elsewhere given his goal ratio of almost one every 97 minutes in the Bundesliga and Champions League.

In addition to 500 live football games, you can watch cricket, golf, Formula One, boxing, NBA, NFL, and more on eight dedicated channels with Sky Sports. This year, the only place to see all the action is on Sky Sports.

Prospect Tel from France’s Under-21 team has made 23 of his 27 appearances this season in all competitions as a substitute, finishing second to Harry Kane of England. The likelihood of that dynamic changing anytime soon suggests that United may be able to provide the former Ligue 1 prospect additional opportunities at Old Trafford.
