Pulisic and Sommer appear on Manchester United's transfer radar

Fallen out of Thomas Tuchel's favor at Chelsea, the United States international appeared as a target for the Red Devils who are in the market to sign a wide forward this summer. In addition to Pulisic, United is also interested in signing Switzerland goalkeeper Yann Sommer.

According to

Sky Sports

,

Manchester United

is negotiating with Chelsea over a loan move for their winger Christian Pulisic.

Arriving in 2019 for a £57.6m fee from Borussia Dortmund,

Christian Pulisic

failed to live up to the expectations at

Chelsea

and is reportedly keen on a move as he looks to increase his game time in the World Cup season as Chelsea pursuit of Everton winger,

Anthony Gordon

, would only reduce his game-time further.

Man United is also interested in PSV's forward

Cody Gakpo

, but the Dutch club delayed the negotiations until after the Dutch club's Champions League qualifier with Rangers is concluded next Wednesday.

 

In addition to Pulisic, Manchester United are also interested in signing

Borussia Moenchengladbach

goalkeeper

Yann Sommer

to provide competition for their first-choice goalkeeper

David de Gea

. However, amid reported interest from two other Premier League clubs.

Sommer wants to play the number one role rather than a backup as his contract with Gladbach runs until 2025. The

Switzerland

international has 74 senior caps and was part of the team that reached the quarter-finals of last summer's European Championship, defeating France in the last 16.

The Red Devils are also willing to pay the €17m demanded fee in signing the

Barcelona

fullback

Sergino Dest

to reunite him with their new boss, Eric ten Hag, who arrived from Ajax this summer.
