Kana Biyik is a highly sought-after center forward who Manchester United was able to acquire from rivals Chelsea and PSG. The Red Devils’ decision to give the 21-year-old wonderkid a long-term contract at Old Trafford is a declaration of purpose as they consider changing their attacking options going forward.
A top forward prospect on the rise in Europe, Biyik is being pursued by numerous elite teams due to his extraordinary potential. Influenced by Ruben Amorim’s proposal and the team’s long-term sporting goals, he decided on Manchester United. His arrival significantly improves a club that wants to win the Premier League and the Champions League.
Chelsea and PSG both made serious attempts to get Kana Biyik; thus, there was fierce rivalry. Biyik was in great demand because of his reputation for scoring goals.
According to reports, PSG considered him a potential replacement for Kylian Mbappé, who has since joined Real Madrid, while Chelsea offered a highly alluring offer. However, Manchester United’s discussions and their well-defined strategy for his future ultimately proved to be the difference.
Ruben Amorim mulling over including Enzo Kana-Biyik
However, things may now change as the United head coach is keen to observe firsthand what the 18-year-old is capable of. Amorim wants the youngster to adjust to his new home and learn to cope with the responsibilities and expectations of a club like United, according to the source.
According to GIVEMESPORT sources, Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim is carefully evaluating whether to include Enzo Kana-Biyik in his preseason tour plans after they were able to come to an agreement to entice the teenager from Le Havre to Old Trafford before the transfer window formally opened.
“According to GMS sources, Kana-Biyik may be included in Manchester United’s preseason tour plans, as Amorim is tempted to give him an early chance to feel like a member of the team and learn about the atmosphere they are attempting to create at Old Trafford as they get ready for the 2025–2026 season.”
Because United has few options up top, it will be interesting to see whether the French talent can even end up changing their mind about a loan exit and potentially staying on. In addition to playing in the Premier League Summer Series for the first time, United will travel to Sweden and the US for preseason games.
