Man United agree deal to sign "talented" player minutes before biggest game of the season

News of Manchester United's latest transfer was announced just minutes before their Europa League semi-final with Athletic Club.

After an incredible extra time comeback win over Lyon in the last round, United travelled to Bilbao to play the Basque outfit in the first leg at San Mames in their biggest game of the season.

United are languishing in 14th place in the Premier League after a dire domestic campaign but a second Europa League win in their history would secure qualification into next season's Champions League.

It's set to be quite the summer overhaul for Ruben Amorim's side and just prior to the clash, Fabrizio Romano reported on a done deal for United.

According to the transfer expert, United have agreed to sign Enzo Kana Biyik, a talented 18-year-old, from Le Havre.

Hailed as a "signing for the future", the striker is poised to sign a long-term contract until 2030.

According to journalist Christopher Michel, United saw off competition from Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco to secure Kana Biyik's services.

The starlet's two brothers are both in the academy set-up at PSG but Kana Biyik has decided against staying in France and take the same approach as Paul Pogba, who left Le Havre without a first team appearance to sign for United.

Kana Biyik has been in and around the first-team but is yet to make his senior debut for Le Havre, who are 16th in Ligue One after 31 games played.

United are expected to be busy in the transfer market, with a new forward said to be a priority and the likes of Liam Delap, Matheus Cunha and Viktor Gyokeres believed be among their targets.

Kana Biyik is seen as one for the future but he is not expected to be with United next season as French outlet Le Parisien say that he is likely to be loaned out from the off.

In fact, it's claimed he is set to spend the 2025/26 campaign with Swiss side FC Lausanne-Sport, who are owned by United's minority shareholders INEOS.
