Red Devils Ready to Pounce on Ipswich Star
Manchester United are emerging as clear front-runners to land highly-rated striker Liam Delap this summer. According to Fichajes, United are preparing a £30 million bid to activate the release clause for the Ipswich Town star, aiming to beat Newcastle United and Chelsea to his signature.
Delap impressed in the Premier League with 14 goal contributions for Ipswich, showcasing the qualities of a top-flight centre-forward. With Ipswich’s relegation confirmed after their defeat to Newcastle, the 21-year-old’s release clause has dropped, making him an even more attractive prospect.
Manchester United Eyeing Striker Reinforcements
The Red Devils are keen to bolster their attack, especially with Rasmus Hojlund’s future at Old Trafford uncertain following a disappointing season. United are reportedly eager to structure a deal with Ipswich Town, potentially paying Delap’s fee in instalments.
Newcastle and Chelsea are monitoring the situation closely, but United’s proactive approach puts them firmly in pole position. The club is also closing in on the signing of Matheus Cunha from Wolves, signalling a busy summer window ahead.
Adding Delap to their attacking ranks would not only strengthen United’s options but also fit their strategy of targeting young, dynamic forwards. Expect movement soon as Manchester United push hard to bring Delap to the Theatre of Dreams.
