Manchester United’s boss Ruben Amorim could swoop for free agent Dominic Calvert Lewin. The former Everton striker is still searching for his next club.
Amorim eyes Calvert Lewin
**Manchester United**’s summer rebuild under Ruben Amorim has already seen nearly £200m spent. Yet the boss appears to be keeping the door open for more firepower. In the recent weeks, Dominic Calvert Lewin is emerging as a potential addition.
The forward left Everton after nine seasons and 57 PL goals. The Sheffield born player remains on the market and has drawn attention from both domestic and overseas clubs. Man Utd’s interest comes as Amorim looks to build a rotation-friendly squad. He is eyeing Calvert Lewin as a reliable third or fourth choice option.
The attacker is known for his aerial strength and presence in the box. He could offer a different dimension in United’s frontline.
Opportunity or gamble
Calvert Lewin’s form has dipped in recent seasons. But, much of that can be put down to Everton’s own struggles in attack. At his best, the striker has shown he can hit double figures in the league. He can trouble any defence with his physical style. His reported wage demand of £100k-per-week would fit within United’s budget as well.
Calvert Lewin is a player who wants to get back on the tracks of his career. He has the opportunity to go back to one of the leagues bigger clubs this summer to play under a manager who has a track record of getting the best out of players on the pitch.
If Red Devils push ahead, this would be one of the more interesting late summer deals. The Old Trafford club will be taking a huge risk with the hope of getting back a proven Premier League scorer’s best form. Let’s see if Man Utd make their move for the former England international.
