A Bayern Munchen top player to be Jim Ratcliffe’s first signing at Manchester United

Manchester United’s new minority stakeholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s era at the club has started in the last few hours and the British billionaire would be ready to make his first gift to the Red Devils in the next few weeks, as he could be planning to sign a top player from Bayern Munchen to strengthen one of the weakest areas of Ten Hag’s squad.

In this sense, according to the German site BILD, Ratcliffe would be on the verge of securing the Manchester United’s first signing in the January transfer market window, once the Red Devils recently completed the exit of Donny van de Beek and the departure of Jadon Sancho to Borussia Dortmund.

Following these sources, the new owner of the Mancunian institution would be keen on signing the Cameroonian 34-year-old striker Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting from Bayern Munchen, seen as a potential short-term fix for United’s poor scoring numbers in the season.

Bayern wouldn’t be opposed to the move from United

According to the information given by BILD, Bayern Munchen would be unlikely to avoid a move from United for Choupo-Moting, as they have well secured his position considering the addition of Harry Kane to their squad and the rising of young talent Mathys Tel.
