# Manchester United: Moussa Dembele ‘dream’ Red Devils move gets disapproval from supporters

**According to a report from[Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/transfer/news/11095/11937417/liverpool-could-just-be-jadon-sanchos-next-club-kaveh-solhekol-the-insider), Lyon striker Moussa Dembele is very keen on a ‘[dream](https://www.skysports.com/transfer/news/11095/11937417/liverpool-could-just-be-jadon-sanchos-next-club-kaveh-solhekol-the-insider)‘ move to Manchester United this summer – but these Red Devils fans think their priorities should lie elsewhere.**

Dembele, who has scored [13 goals in 21 Ligue 1 starts](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/140090/Show/Moussa-Dembele) for the French outfit this season, is reportedly dreaming of a move to Man United in the summer – with the Red Devils also in need of a permanent out and out striker after [selling Romelu Lukaku](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49146040) before the start of the campaign. However, even if this sounds like a potentially good idea, some supporters think they should look elsewhere for a striker – with one fan even [suggesting](https://twitter.com/samdanielsxx/status/1230271173218521088?s=21) they swoop for Victor Osimhen instead.

The Ligue 1 pair are currently locked on 13 goals each, with Osimhen notching two more league assists while taking on more shots per game on average (3.2), as [per WhoScored.com](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/298510/Show/Victor-Osimhen). This could be an indication that targeting Osimhen is indeed more worthwhile.

As a result, many Red Devils supporters also agree that Dembele simply isn’t the right man for them – with another supporter even going as far to say he is just ‘[Lukaku 2.0](https://publish.twitter.com/?query=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FMikeOmachAmTha1%2Fstatus%2F1230254157803802626&widget=Tweet)‘.
