Manchester United are handed a boost in their efforts to sign David Brooks after Bournemouth boss Jason Tindall suggested that the winger can leave for the right price.

Manchester United have seemingly been handed a boost in their pursuit of Bournemouth winger David Brooks.

With club officials currently unwilling to pay £108m for Borussia Dortmund's Jadon Sancho, it has left the Premier League giants to consider other targets.

Reports have claimed that Brooks is another playmaker on United's radar, with the Wales international regarded as better value for money in the current market.

While United are yet to agree a fee with Bournemouth, Cherries boss Jason Tindall has hinted that the Championship club are open to a sale for the right price.

Speaking to the Bournemouth Echo, Tindall said: "We as a football club have got a value of what we believe for our players, and if that value is met then players have got the opportunity to then discuss with whoever they need to discuss with and then make the decision they feel is right for them.

"But first and foremost, it needs to be right for the football club and once it's right for the football club then, as you've seen in the past, I don't think it's a club that will stand in anybody's way providing that the club's happy with and it meets the valuation of the player."

The 23-year-old, who missed the majority of last season through injury, has contributed eight goals and five assists during 42 appearances for Bournemouth since 2018.
