The 18-year-old has already scored seven goals in the Danish Superliga this year, and his drаmаtic late winner in the Champions League match against Manchester United has also drawn attention.
The Red Devils were in a terrible spot in their Champions League group when the Swede came off the bench to score the game-winning goal in the legendary 4-3 victory for the Danish team.
Although Bardghji hasn’t scored since that goal a month ago, he has been the focus of a lot of attention, with Chelsea sending scouts to observe him play.The youthful winger has reportedly been scouted by the Blues, Juventus, Barcelona, and Bayer Leverkusen, according to transfer analyst Fabrizio Romano.
Since his FC Copenhagen contract expires in 2025, interested parties believe that a move can be made in January 2024 or during the summer transfer window for a fair fee.
The rising star from Kuwait has stated his professional goals clearly, stating that he wants to play for a certain team and reach the pinnacle of the sport.”My goal is to become the best footballer in the world,” he stated to the Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet last year. I’ve had that dream since I was a young child, and the only person who can stop me is me.
“I hope to become a Real Madrid player.” I hope to perform there for a very long time.
Man Utd rival Chelsea for Andre Onana replacement with Erik ten Hag ‘unconvinced’
According to sources, Manchester United is surprisingly a candidate to recruit AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan, despite Andre Onana’s unsatisfactory start. David de Gea’s £47 million successor, Erik ten Hag, took over as the Spanish goalkeeper in the summer, although he hasn’t exactly been flawless.After De Gea declined a large pay increase to continue at Old Trafford, ending his 11-year tenure as United’s top player, Onana arrived from Inter Milan.
However, a few errors by the Cameroonian international have cost United, particularly during the Champions League group stage.
Ten Hag defended his goalie resolutely last week, pointing to data that indicated he was the “second-best” in the Premier League this year.
It’s true that the 27-year-old has improved recently in domestic games, as United has won five of their previous seven league games.
With just one victory in five games, United is currently at the bottom of Group A as a result of his European mistakes. Losing at Old Trafford to Bayern Munich would eliminate any chance of at least qualifying for the Europa League.
Furthermore, it is said that, only a few months after Onana’s arrival, Ten Hag is losing tolerance with him in private.United is one of the teams interested in signing Milan’s Maignan, according to Foot Mercato.
The 28-year-old has blossomed over his tenures at Lille and the San Siro giants, emerging as one of the top goalkeepers in the world.
Although it has reportedly been challenging to come to an agreement on terms to keep Maignan at Milan past 2026, he is rumored to be in talks for a new deal.
Moreover, it’s been said that he might be available for £60 million, and United, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain are still keeping an eye on his circumstances.
According to the article, Ten Hag is a big fan of Maignan’s technique and isn’t convinced by Onana, even though in July, he made him the most expensive goalkeeper in United’s history.This season, Onana and Nick Pope of Newcastle United and Sam Johnstone of Crystal Palace have combined for the most clean sheets held in the Premier League.However, serious doubts surround him in light of his horrific performances in the Champions League.
Ten Hag’s inability to implement his preferred style of play has exacerbated discontent, especially because Onana was partially brought in for his ball-playing prowess.
However, a goalkeeper’s main responsibility is to prevent the ball from entering the net. The former stopper for Barcelona, Ajax, and Inter hasn’t been performing it well enough, in the opinion of many.
