Igor Matanoivich, SC Freiburg's forward, is attracting increasing interest from Manchester United, Arsenal, and Chelsea after a strong start to the season, scoring six goals in his first seven matches across all competitions.


CaughtOffside reports that Manchester United have discussed the possibility of signing the player internally, while officials from Arsenal and Chelsea have attended several of his matches to watch him. The source clarified that Matanoevich, 23 years old, is open to a move to England if the right offers come in.


Several clubs considered signing him last summer after he scored 15 goals with SC Freiburg, but his value has increased since then, as he could have left for around £30 million, while his current value is estimated at about £50 million.


Matanoevich is distinguished by his physical and technical abilities, making him a potential target for Premier League clubs. Arsenal is looking for a new striker, while Manchester United needs more attacking options, and Chelsea continues to monitor young talents.


SC Freiburg are open to selling the player if a suitable offer arrives, but they are looking to secure a good financial return, especially after selling Johan Manzambi to Aston Villa for £50 million during the summer.
