Jurgen Klopp and Steven Gerrard have same opinion as Man Utd plot mega swap deal

Jurgen Klopp and Steven Gerrard have shared their thoughts on wantaway Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins as reports emerge of Manchester United’s interest in the Englishman

Jurgen Klopp and Steven Gerrard both think Manchester United would be signing a top-quality player if they could pull off a mega swap deal for Ollie Watkins. United are claimed to be considering a stunning swap deal for Watkins, which would see Marcus Rashford’s move to Aston Villa become permanent.

Rashford has been on loan at Villa Park since January, notching four assists and two goals in 14 games after being frozen out by Ruben Amorim at his parent club, United. The Red Devils previously valued Rashford at £40million but the 27-year-old could now be used to bring in his England team-mate, according to the Daily Star.
