INEOS now takes a closer look at “unbelievable” Man Utd target who has scored 64 PL goals
Manchester United are now battling Chelsea to sign West Ham United star Jarrod Bowen, a striker who could be available at a cut-price if the Hammers lose this season.
Man Utd are targeting a Premier League striker
INEOS’s investments have been refreshingly prudent over the past 12 months. Man United didn’t just go out and spend big money on the name of the next star. Instead, they welcomed the proven stars of the Premier League, who have given them what they lacked.
Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha are outstanding. The duo, from Brentford and Wolverhampton Wanderers, were not leading Premier League stars when they arrived at Old Trafford, although they have impressed outside the top six. Now, one year later, they have enjoyed one of Man United’s best seasons.

With that in mind, it’s no surprise that INEOS is aiming to do it again. According to a report by Fussball Daten in Germany, Man United has entered the race to sign Bowen by trying to get one from rivals Chelsea, who are also interested.
The striker is highly unlikely to stay at West Ham if they lose this weekend and that could open the door to a cut-price move for those at Old Trafford.
The player who was once valued at around £60m could see his price drop and the possibility of a summer return to the Premier League increase rapidly as a result.

Man Utd’s first signing under Michael Carrick could be completed.
With Champions League football set to return to Old Trafford next season, they could really do with the quality depth Bowen will provide, as well as his Premier League quality.
The West Ham captain has scored 64 goals in England’s top flight throughout his career and has been set for a big move for some time.
“Unbelievable” Bowen could be Cunha returning to Man Utd
With or without being sacked, Bowen is someone who deserves a big move before his time in English football is over. His goals have taken West Ham to heights some never believed possible and that could be rewarded by Man United when the summer transfer window opens.
Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was a fan of the striker, telling reporters: “Bowen, what a player he’s become! He’s unbelievable. We saw him at Hull too and he was really good then. I’m not sure many people expected this leap, but an unbelievable player.”
After being dismissed by Thomas Tuchel and left out of England’s World Cup squad, nobody would have blamed Bowen if he put himself forward and avoided relegation to the Championship this summer.
