Manchester United set to lose another striker as Real Madrid plotting a mega swap deal for Leipzig forward Timo Werner
Manchester United are in search of a striker having been linked with a move for Edinson Cavani, Mario Mandžukić and Erling Haaland seasons-in-and-out but the Reds have failed to sign any of these forwards.
Two days ago, Borussia Dortmund signed target Haaland who Ole’s side have scouted for so many times this season, therefore making RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner immediate target for Manchester United.

According to reports in Spain, Manchester United could also lose Timo Werner after Haaland snub.
The Red Bull Leipzig striker is apparently being courted by Liverpool, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid who are weighing between the German and PSG ace Edinson Cavani despite Cavani looking the favorite at Wanda Metropolitano.
The 22-year-old is Premier League bound, and that would have favor Werner’s move to either Liverpool, Chelsea or Manchester United, but these EPL clubs could be out of luck, as Real Madrid however are said to be plotting a mega swap deal for the youngster.
According to Spanish publication El Desmarque, Madrid are planning to offer up Luka Jovic and £12.8million for the German.
Jovic joined Madrid in the summer from Eintracht Frankfurt in a £60m move, but has failed to properly find his feet in the Spanish capital.
Madrid’s latest interest wouldn’t completely rule out Werner’s possible move to Manchester United or Chelsea.
