Manchester United reportedly fail with an approach to sign in-demand Benfica forward Darwin Nunez ahead of next season.

Benfica forward Darwin Nunez reportedly has no interest in signing for Manchester United during the summer transfer window.

Nunez has just completed the best campaign of his career, contributing 32 goals from his 39 appearances in all competitions.

Such has been the consistency of the Uruguay international that many of European football's top clubs are now queuing up for his signature, including United who are likely to spend big on a new frontman over the coming months.

However, according to RMC Sport, the 22-year-old has no intention of signing for a club which is not participating in next season's Champions League.

The report claims that United had made a £68m offer before being informed of Nunez's decision, Newcastle United also made aware that they are not regarded as a potential destination.

Paris Saint-Germain are said to retain an interest in Nunez with the player potentially being signed as a replacement for Kylian Mbappe if he departs for Real Madrid.
