Manchester United has set their sights on Copenhagen wonderkid Roony Bardghji as they prepare for their upcoming Champions League clash with Manchester City. The 18-year-old talent has piqued the interest of the Red Devils since his remarkable goal against them in November.
United recently dispatched a scout to Portugal to closely assess Bardghji’s performance in the Atlantic Ocean Cup. Scandinavian clubs participate in this event to regain momentum after the winter break. The teenage sensation did not disappoint, displaying exceptional skills and scoring a late consolation goal in a 2-1 defeat to Brondby.
Bardghji burst onto the scene in 2021, making his senior debut just days after turning 16. Since then, he has already found the back of the net 11 times this season. His performances have caught the attention of several clubs, leading to a valuation of around £17 million. Copenhagen, the Danish Superliga champions, are anticipated to demand a record fee for their rising star this summer.
As Manchester United prepares for their crucial Champions League tie against Manchester City, the scouting of Bardghji has heightened. The City side, led by Pep Guardiola, will certainly be aware of the young winger’s threat. Copenhagen’s clash with City will mark their first competitive game since December, making Bardghji a key player to watch.
Following Bardghji’s warm-up match against Molde, United plans to deploy scouts to both legs of the City tie. Their focus is on finding a suitable replacement for Jadon Sancho, who has been loaned back to Borussia Dortmund and is now available for a transfer fee exceeding £40 million.
So, keep an eye on Roony Bardghji, the promising Copenhagen wonderkid who has captured the attention of the Red Devils. The future looks bright for this talented young player. For more updates and news, visit F5 Magazine.
