Manchester United is about to welcome a new striker

According to British media reports, Manchester United is currently in the lead in the competition for Dominic Calvert-Lewin's signing.

Calvert Lewin became a free agent

The Manchester Evening News reported that Manchester United had an advantage in the competition with Newcastle United and Leeds United. With its strong financial resources and determination to return to the top, the club is considered the most likely team to sign the former Everton striker.

Last week, Calvert Lewin announced his departure from Everton as a free transfer, ending his nine-year partnership. The 28-year-old striker said it was a very difficult decision. After the experienced Premier League scorer

became a free agent, Calvert Lewin attracted the interest of several Premier League clubs. With his experience in the Premier League and his ideal height of 1.87 meters, he is considered an ideal candidate to perfectly fit Amorin's tactical system - the latter prefers to use strong and flexible strikers.

If the transaction is successful, this low-cost signing will greatly enhance Manchester United's offensive firepower and enrich the team's lineup. During his time at Goodison Park, Calvert Lewin scored more than 60 goals, becoming one of Everton's best strikers.

Once, the England international was worth more than £90 million, but due to injuries and personal decline, he has now become a free agent.

In addition to Calvert Lewin, Manchester United is also close to reaching an agreement with Brentford's Brian Mbeumo. After failing to sign Liam Drapp from Chelsea, the Red Devils are still eager to bring in a real center. By introducing Calvert Lewin, Manchester United has the opportunity to supplement an experienced striker at a lower cost.
