Manchester United and Premier League rivals have been offered the chance to sign Ligue 1 goal machine in a cut-price transfer

Manchester United, Tottenham and Arsenal are among the clubs who have been offered the chance to sign Lille striker Jonathan David, according to talkSPORT.

Intermediaries working on behalf of David want to bring the Canadian international to the Premier League.

David is thought to cost just £30million as he enters the final year of his contract.

The 24-year-old had a great 2023/24 season where he scored 26 goals in all competitions, including 19 in Ligue 1 to propel Lille to fourth place.

Since joining the French team in 2020, David has found the net 84 times in 183 matches.

He helped Lille win the top-flight title in their opening campaign after scoring 13 goals in Ligue 1.

And he’s just been just as prolific on the international stage with Canada, where he’s just three goals away from tying teammate Cyle Larin’s record of 29 goals.

David started Canada’s opening match against Argentina to kick off the 2024 Copa America, but could not prevent his team from losing 2-0.

United, Arsenal and Tottenham could all strengthen their front line this summer to compete with Rasmus Hojlund, Kai Havertz and Richarlison respectively.

The Red Devils and Gunners were dealt a major blow when Slovenian starlet Benjamin Sesko refused to sign a new deal with RB Leipzig.

Erik ten Hag is also said to be interested in Bologna’s Joshua Zirkzee as they consider activating his £34m release clause.

As for Arsenal, Napoli striker Victor Osimhen and Juventus center forward Dusan Vlahovic have emerged as possible alternatives to Sesko.

Tottenham, meanwhile, have reportedly been offered the chance to bring former Chelsea star Tammy Abraham back to the Premier League.

talkSPORT reported last week how Spurs could strike a deal to sign the Roma man for just £26m following an injury-plagued campaign in Italy.
