Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Napoli star Hirving Lozano for more than just his on-the-pitch talent.
It’s not the first time the Mexican winger has been linked with a move to Old Trafford or the Premier League as that was when he first impressed at the World Cup.
Lozano ended up securing a transfer to Napoli instead as both United and Arsenal didn’t make a move for him despite what reports said.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could actually do with a winger or two in his squad and it’s one of the main reasons Borussia Dortmund’s Jadon Sancho has been targetted.
Lozano would potentially be a cheaper alternative to the young Englishman but that is not why he is under consideration.

Manchester United gained a lot financially and from a marketing perspective when they signed Chicharito many years ago but since then they haven’t had a Mexican player on their team.
Generally speaking, they don’t have a host of South American players with Fred arguably the only true option and he hasn’t featured for his country in a while.
Andreas Pereira is Belgian-born and Marcos Rojo is on loan back in his native Argentina.
Lozano would offer good depth on both flanks and could push into the starting XI should he show a good run of form, even if Sancho ends up making the switch to Old Trafford himself.
United might have to finish their Premier League season at neutral grounds as the authorities try to ensure player safety. How much do you know about those neither-home-nor-away games the Red Devils have played in the past? Take our quiz below to find out.
