A correspondent from Les Bons Conseils Du Sport, Seb Ecrivain Foot, reports that Manchester United is currently engaged in negotiations with Bayern Munich regarding a loan deal for Cameroon international striker Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting until the end of the season.

In adherence to Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations, Manchester United does not anticipate signing any permanent players this month. Consequently, their focus has shifted to the loan market as they seek impactful players to bolster their squad.

Having monitored Choupo-Moting’s performance for several weeks, Manchester United is poised to present an offer to both the player and the club to signify their genuine interest in the acquisition.

According to a previous statement on X (formerly Twitter), the French reporter expressed optimism about the deal, affirming that ongoing discussions are essential for Manchester United, given their need to reinforce their attacking options.

Since Harry Kane’s arrival at Bayern during the summer, Choupo-Moting has seen limited playing time, starting in only four of the 20 games he participated in this season.

With the 34-year-old striker scoring three goals thus far, a stark contrast from his ten goals in 19 league games last year, Manchester United views a short-term deal as a mutually beneficial arrangement, acknowledging its potential to enhance both sides.
