United eye shook swoop for Bournemouth star

 

Manchester United are considering a shock move for Bournemouth winger Matt Ritchie, according to The Sun.

 

Ritchie, 26, has been an integral part of Bournemouth’s rise to the Premier League and his performances haven’t gone unnoticed by Louis van Gaal.

 

The United boss has reportedly sent scouts to watch Ritchie this season and could make a move for the Scotland international as early as January.

Ritchie has proven to be Bournemouth’s outlet ball time and time again this season and it’s not surprise that the Scot averages more crosses per game than any other teammate in the Premier League this season (1.8), accentuating his statistically calculated strength of ‘crossing’.
