Having pulled the curtains on his nine-year Everton tenure upon his contract expiry last week, Dominic Calvert-Lewin is on the hunt for his next club.<\/p>\n

Somewhat unsurprisingly, he\u2019s found himself linked with Manchester United, with co-owners INEOS now floundering to sanction a striker signing before 2025\/2026 gets underway in just over a month\u2019s time.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s safe to say Calvert-Lewin wasn\u2019t one of the first names on Ruben Amorim\u2019s shortlist<\/a> heading into the summer, but after being snubbed by both Liam Delap and Viktor Gyokeres, the former Toffee has reportedly come into consideration at Old Trafford in recent days.<\/p>\n

Ben Jacobs<\/a> claims (via The United Stand) that the 28-year-old has now \u2018offered himself\u2019 to United and is awaiting clarification over whether they\u2019d want to pursue a move.<\/p>\n

Whilst he is a free agent, his high wage demands are said to be one area of concern \u2013 along with his injury record. Since 2017\/2018, his first full season at Goodison Park, he has missed a total of 103 matches across all competitions (as per Transfermarkt<\/a>), making him far too unreliable to depend upon for the duration of a campaign.<\/p>\n

That being said, the fact that United failed to qualify for any form of European football next term means they\u2019re in for a considerably quieter year, during which they\u2019ll rarely have to plan for midweek fixtures.<\/p>\n

If not Calvert-Lewin, who?<\/p>\n

Calvert-Lewin would join Rasmus Hojlund as the only out-and-out No.9s at Amorim\u2019s disposal<\/a>, given Joshua Zirkzee\u2019s preference to drop back and involve himself more in the link-up play.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s unless INEOS push to facilitate Hojlund\u2019s departure amid his growing interest from Serie A clubs. Should any transfer come to fruition, it\u2019s been claimed his sale could pave the way for United to pursue Aston Villa talisman Ollie Watkins, who certainly poses as a more exhilarating addition.<\/p>\n
