Nine ‘rough diamonds’ Manchester United could sign this summer

7. Viktor Tsygankov

Nation: Ukraine

Position: Winger

Age: 22

Market Value: £14.40m

Current Club: Dinamo Kyiv

One of the most underrated players on this list, Viktor Tsygankov is the real deal and he could be the best Ukrainian to have emerged from the nation since Andriy Shevchenko.

Tsygankov is blessed with pace and an outstanding dribbling ability. He can slalom past players with ease and he could be the perfect alternative to Jadon Sancho. Tsygankov has 17 goals and 8 assists in 39 appearances this season and despite his tender age he is already the vice captain for the Kiev based outfit.

With 154 games 59 goals and 45 assists in total for Dinamo, Tsygankov is posting similar numbers to Jadon Sancho and he has plenty of time to get even better. The 22 year old is definitely ready for the next step. He’s done well in the Europa League for the past three seasons too proving he can perform at a high level. In total Tsygankov has scored 7 goals and handed out 11 assists in 23 Europa League games.

His pace and his ability in the final third is what makes him the ideal summer target for Manchester United.

8. Adam Hlozek

Nation: Czech Republic

Age: 18

Position: Winger

Market Value: £8.10m

Current Club: Sparta Prague

Hlozek is the youngest player on the list but the Czech youngster could have the most potential out of all the players mentioned.

He has practically been a regular for Sparta Prague since the age of 16. This season Hlozek has finished the campaign with 9 goals and 9 assists in 39 appearances. With a total of 62 appearances 13 goals and 12 assists in his senior career so far, Hlozek is posting impressive numbers.

He would be another alternative option to Sancho. Of course Hlozek is much more raw than the Dortmund star, and he still needs a lot of work to hone his skills, but the 18 year old is of similar ilk.

Sparta Prague could let him go on the cheap, the likes of Leipzig are already sniffing about for his services so United would need to act fast.

9. Milot Rashica

Nation: Kosovo

Position: Winger

Age: 24

Market Value: £19.80m

Current Club: Werder Bremen

The oldest and thus unsurprisingly the most established star on the list, Milot Rashica will be available for a bargain price this summer after Werder Bremen’s abysmal season.

Despite the best efforts of the Kosovo international Raschica was unable to keep the German side from the foot of the Bundesliga table which forced them into a scrappy relegation play-off.

Rashica is a diminutive player. He can be explosive and he is definitely suited to the hustle and bustle of the Premier League.

11 goals and 8 assists in 34 appearances for a struggling Werder Bremen side is certainly an impressive figure.

Borussia Dortmund have lined him up as their potential Sancho replacement, but maybe Manchester United could swoop in and sign him as their Sancho alternative instead.
