Julian Ryerson has been one of Norway’s best performers at the World Cup this summer, and his displays could lead to a move to Manchester United before the start of the season.
The defender has been followed by the Red Devils even before the tournament began, with the club already aware of his impressive form for Borussia Dortmund in Germany. His performances have continued to attract attention as he establishes himself as one of the most reliable right backs in the Bundesliga.
Manchester United monitor Ryerson
Several clubs have been keeping a close eye on Ryerson, but Manchester United are now considering whether to make a move for him during the current transfer window. The defender’s consistency has made him an appealing option for teams looking to strengthen their squads.
According to Sporten, any doubts Manchester United may have had about Ryerson’s quality before the World Cup have been removed by his performances in the competition. As they prepare to sign players and improve Michael Carrick’s squad, the Norwegian has emerged as one of the names on their radar.
World Cup provides another opportunity
Norway have performed well at the tournament, and several of their players have caught the attention of some of Europe’s biggest clubs, including Ryerson. Manchester United may therefore decide to move quickly if they believe he is the right player to add to their squad.
Ryerson could become the latest Norwegian player to make an impact in England if he completes a move, following the path of players such as Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard. His performances at club and international level have placed him in a strong position, and the coming weeks could determine whether he begins the next stage of his career in the Premier League.
