Manchester United have been linked with a move for 19-year-old talented young Gambian striker Adama Bojang.
According to Sky Germany, Manchester United will battle it out with clubs like Eintracht Frankfurt and Racing Strasbourg for Adama Bojang. The 19-year-old striker is expected to join a European club within the next couple of weeks, and he is set to cost €5 million.
The Gambian whizkid is a tremendous talent who is rated very highly around Europe. He has been tipped to follow in the footsteps of Samuel Eto’o, Didier Drogba, Mohamed Salah and Victor Osimhen.
According to Sascha Empacher, the man who identified players like Salah, Bojang is the best African player he has seen in the last decade. He has been linked with Liverpool and Chelsea as well.
The 19-year-old could prove to be a quality long-term investment for Manchester United. And it remains to be seen whether the Red Devils can get the deal done. The reported cut-price asking price should not be a problem with Manchester United’s resources. But the player is likely to demand ample first-team action.

The 19-year-old currently plays for Steve Biko FC in Gambia. He has a contract until the summer of 2026 and will be hoping to take the next step in his career in the coming weeks. The opportunity to play for a club like Manchester United will certainly be an attractive option for the player, and he is likely to be tempted if there is an official offer on the table.
Manchester United have an impressive track record of nurturing talented young players into top-class stars. And they could help the 19-year-old fulfil his tremendous potential as well. The Red Devils need to add more depth to their attack and Bojang could be a quality alternative to Marcus Rashford.
Although he might not be ready to start for Manchester United every week, he could still be a very useful squad player for them and he could start in the cup games. Regular exposure in the Premier League could accelerate the 19-year-old’s development and help him fulfil his potential. If the Red Devils manage to sign him for €5 million, the deal could look like a transfer masterstroke in the coming years.
