Manchester United Transfer News: Irish youngster on the radar
Last Wednesday, he secured his first senior start for Ireland, scoring his debut goal in the team’s 3-2 victory against Latvia. In light of Manchester United’s need for a pure striker, with reports of Harry Kane being their top priority, the club’s scouts are also keeping a close eye on Ferguson.
