Manchester United’s recent signing from the Bundesliga has not made a great start at Old Trafford. Jadon Sancho arrived with a lot of big expectations this summer, after establishing himself as one of the most exciting wingers in world football during his time at Borussia Dortmund. But his time at the Theatre of Dreams has been underwhelming till now.

Sancho is yet to score or assist for Manchester United. And very often, he has found himself sitting on the bench recently.

That does not mean that he will not ultimately find his feet at the club though and establish himself as a first-team star, or that Manchester United should not sign players from Bundesliga moving forward.

On the contrary, there are some terrific players in the Bundesliga that the Red Devils should be keeping an eye on and target in upcoming transfer windows.

Christopher Nkunku has been an absolute revelation for RB Leipzig this season. The talent or potential has never been in question when it comes to the 23-year-old. But this season, it appears that he has finally put it all together and it is working like a treat.

According to stats from Transfermarkt, Nkunku has scored 11 goals and provided 7 assists in 17 appearances for RB Leipzig across all competitions this season. It is safe to say that those are incredible stats for any player.

And very importantly, he is showing his quality in domestic games as well as the Champions League.

There is no doubt that he is one of the most exciting young talents in world football right now and a number of clubs would be expected to try and sign the RB Leipzig star in the near future.
