Bayern Munich forward Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting open to Manchester United move

Bayern Munich forward Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting would be open to joining Manchester United in the January transfer window, according to reports.

Erik ten Hag is keen for United to recruit a new central striker before the end of the month and Choupo-Moting is among the players on the club’s shortlist.

The 34-year-old, who is not part of Cameroon’s squad for the Africa Cup of Nations, has struggled for playing time this season at Bayern, starting just three games in the Bundesliga and none in the Champions League.

The arrival of Harry Kane last summer has hindered Choupo-Moting’s chances of securing a regular role at Bayern even further this season.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Choupo-Moting would be keen on joining United, however, the Premier League club may struggle to convince Bayern to part ways with the player, given his impact off the bench.
