"Man Utd are 'leading the race' to sign the England international as West Ham look to avoid relegation from the Premier League with the club currently in the drop zone. The Hammers are currently two points from safety and their relegation to the Championship 'would greatly facilitate negotiations' for Man Utd, who are eyeing a cut-price fee."
"Dropping out of the Premier League 'would force the London club to negotiate his permanent departure' with an 'initial transfer fee is estimated at around €60m (£53m)'. The report adds that 'sources close to the club suggest that this fee could be negotiable and considerably reduced following relegation' with Man Utd 'looking to capitalise on this situation'."
"Man Utd 'plan to initiate formal talks once West Ham's final league position this season becomes clear' as the Red Devils eye big signings to get them back challenging at the top of the Premier League."
Manchester United has identified Jarrod Bowen as their top attacking target for the summer transfer window. The club spent nearly £200m on attacking reinforcements last summer and has significantly improved their goal-scoring output this season. United are leading the race to sign the England international, with West Ham's current relegation battle potentially facilitating negotiations. West Ham's precarious league position, sitting two points from safety, could force the club to negotiate Bowen's departure at a reduced price. The initial estimated fee stands around €60m (£53m), though sources suggest this could decrease further following relegation. Manchester United plans to initiate formal discussions once West Ham's final league position becomes clear.
