Manchester United are reportedly battling with Chelsea and Liverpool over a deal to sign Galatasaray midfielder Aleksey Batrakov, as per TEAMtalk. The 21-year-old showcased his productivity for Lokomotiv Moscow last season, scoring 17 goals and registering 10 assists in 36 appearances across all competitions.
So, after being impressed by his performances, Cimbom decided to purchase him last summer. He has enjoyed a bright start at Rams Park Stadyumu, making four goal contributions in 10 matches across the Champions League and Turkish Super Lig this season.
Having shown glimpses of his qualities in club football, the youngster has secured his place in the Russian national team. Now, TEAMtalk state that Liverpool and Arsenal have stepped up their interest in signing Batrakov, while Man Utd admire him very much after monitoring his development closely since the summer.
