Transfer: Man United offered opportunity to sign Mateta from Crystal Palace before deadline

Manchester United have reportedly been offered the opportunity to sign Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta before the summer transfer window closes.

The French forward has emerged as a potential option for United as they look to strengthen their attacking options ahead of the transfer deadline.

Mateta has been an important player for Crystal Palace, using his pace, physical strength and goalscoring ability to lead the club’s attack.

Manchester United could now consider the opportunity as manager Michael Carrick looks to build a squad capable of competing strongly in the Premier League this season.
