Manchester United's new co-owner Jim Ratcliffe is keen on a move for Lyon starlet Rayan Cherki.

The British billionaire's INEOS Group finally completed their acquisition of a 25% stake in the Red Devils last Sunday after months of rumours.

Ratcliffe and his staff have been handed the responsibility of United's football operations, which includes the signing of new players.

And according to Football Transfers, Cherki is a player the 71-year-old businessman is eager to bring to Old Trafford in the near future.

Cherki, 20, has been linked with Premier League clubs in the past but Ratcliffe's arrival could finally see a move to England come to fruition.

Lyon's No18 has not enjoyed the finest of starts to the campaign, failing to score in all of his 17 Ligue 1 appearances.

Cherki racked up some impressive numbers last season, though, netting four times and registering six assists in the league.

The France Under-21s ace primarily operates as a central attacking midfielder at Lyon but is more than capable of playing on either flank.

It is a level of versatility that will no doubt appeal to United boss Erik ten Hag, who has seen the likes of Antony and Rasmus Hojlund struggle in his forward line this term.
