Report: Man Utd now eyeing move to sign "outrageous" forward compared to Lionel Messi

Manchester United are among a host of European clubs showing interest in Copenhagen winger Roony Bardghji, according to TBR Football.

The Red Devils, alongside Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich, are reportedly keeping tabs on the promising 19-year-old, who is considered one of the most desired young talents in his position.

Bardghji has less than 12 months left on his contract with Copenhagen, and the race for his signature is expected to intensify in the coming months, with ‘almost every major club in Europe’ monitoring his situation.

A move to the Premier League remains a possibility, with several English clubs in contention to sign the Swedish starlet at the end of the year.

According to TBR Football, clubs looking to sign Bardghji would likely try to reach an agreement with Copenhagen rather than wait for his contract to expire in January.

The 19-year-old, likened to Lionel Messi, could be available for a cut-price deal towards the end of his stay in Denmark and appears unlikely to extend his contract, given the increasing interest from top clubs across Europe.

Bardghji, praised as 'outrageous' by Jacek Kulig, has not played this season after suffering a knee ligament injury in the summer but has returned to training and could make his first appearance towards the end of February.

The Sweden U21 international scored 11 goals in 37 appearances for Copenhagen last season, including one in the Champions League against Man United.

United had a quiet January transfer window, with Patrick Dorgu and Ayden Heaven arriving, but are expected to overhaul the squad after the season.

The Red Devils are likely to bring in midfield reinforcements as Ruben Amorim looks to bring in a new partner for Manuel Ugarte and replace veterans Casemiro and Christian Eriksen.
