Manchester United have been linked with a move for the Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson.
The striker has been offered to the Red Devils this month but a report from football insider claims that Manchester United will not sign him this month.
Wilson has proven himself to be a reliable performer in the Premier League and he could have been a quality acquisition for Manchester United who are in need of attacking reinforcements.
They spent a substantial amount of money during the summer transfer window on a new striker but Rasmus Hojlund has not been able to live up to the expectations. Manchester United need a proven goalscorer at their disposal but they will wait until the summer transfer window in order to bring in a quality signing.
It seems that they are not keen on signing Wilson as a stop-gap option this month. The Newcastle United striker has shown his quality in the Premier League over the years and he could have shared the goal-scoring burden with Hojlund until the end of the season.
The Newcastle striker is up for grabs this month and the Magpies are looking to sacrifice him in order to raise funds for their own signings. There is no doubt that Wilson is good enough to play for most Premier League clubs but he needs to get over his injury problems.
He has had his fair share of injury problems since moving to Newcastle and he can be quite unreliable in terms of availability.
Manchester united will be hoping to finish this season strongly and it remains to be seen whether players like Marcus Rashford and Hojlund can step up and produce consistent performances during the second half of the season.
Manchester United will be hoping to finish the season strongly and qualify for the UEFA Champions League. Signing a quality striker in January would have certainly helped them improve and it remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Joining a big club like Manchester United would have been a step up in Wilson’s career as well and he would have been excited to join them.
