Manchester United are lining up a £60m offer for Napoli forward Arkadiusz Milik, according to the Sun. The newspaper claims that the Red Devils are “ready to pounce” if contract negotiations break down between the 25-year-old and his club.
The Polish international has been in Italy for three and a half years but he has spent a significant amount of his time on the sidelines due to injury, having managed just 99 appearances for the Serie A side.
Supporters on Twitter don’t think a move for Milik would be a good idea:

While other fans have begun to get frustrated by the number of players United are linked with:

Milik has been in very good form this campaign, having scored 10 goals in just 12 games, but injuries have reared their ugly head once more. He has been sidelined with groin and muscular problems already this campaign.
Whether United would look to spend so much money on an injury-prone player, it does seem questionable.
