Manchester United are set to try and convince Desire Doue into a Premier League move and are preparing an offer for the French sensation, according to Fichajes . Though Man United could still win the Europa League at the time of writing, it has been a sorely disappointing season for the Red Devils. Ruben Amorim was appointed to replace Erik ten Hag early in the campaign and though there have been slight improvements in certain areas, the club have still had their struggles.
Man United are 13th in the Premier League, having failed to win back-to-back matches in the top flight all season. There have been questions over their defensive capabilities, but much has been said about their attacking options. Other than captain Bruno Fernandes , Man United often have very little inspiration going forward.
Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee , though still young, have both struggled for goals this season, but were such large investments that the Red Devils may struggle to justify signing yet another striker. As such, it seems they may look elsewhere on the pitch to find a boost in their attack. Man United Interested in Doue As per Fichajes, Desire Doue is a name of significant interest to Man United.
Comfortable on either flank or as a number 10, the teenager joined Paris Saint-Germain from Stade Rennais in the 2024 summer transfer window and across the season, has only seen his importance to manager Luis Enrique grow. Desire Doue 24/25 Stats So Far Competition Appearances Goals Assists Minutes Played Ligue 1 25 5 7 1,430' Champions League 12 3 3 492' Coupe de France 5 4 2 404' Doue has long been regarded as a talented prospect, but his exploits in Paris have seen that stock rise significantly, with the Frenchman being dubbed a Neymar regen as a result of his form. It would now seem that Man United, having previously been interested in Doue, have reignited that interest, with many at the club feeling that the teenager would be capable of rejuvenating their attack.
Though it took Doue time to break into the PSG first team, he is certainly a key part of it now, which may make a transfer hard to negotiate. Fichajes have reported that the Parisians would not let Doue leave easily and presumably, were they to allow Doue to depart, they would want to turn a profit on the £45 million, approximately, that they spent on him. Should the Red Devils be able to agree a deal for Doue, however, then it should be viewed as nothing but an exceptional bit of business.

The Italy international has scored 12 times and registered two assists in 32 appearances for the Serie A outfit this season, with the Red Devils considering a £25m move for the 6ft 7in forward.
Ruben Amorim is on the lookout for a new striker with Rasmus Højlund and Joshua Zirkzee struggling for form this campaign and a move for Lucca would represent a low-cost option in the current market..
