Manchester United have been presented a window of opportunity to strike a deal for Jonathan David as the Canadian striker is waiting until “mid-July” to respond to an offer from Juventus, according to a report.
David, 25, has quietly emerged as one of the most consistent goal-scorers in Europe’s top five leagues over the previous four seasons for French side LOSC Lille.
Last season, he scored an impressive 25 goals while providing a further 12 assists. The campaign before, he scored 26 times with nine assists, while the year before that he scored another 26 goals with a further four assists.
In total, across the last three seasons, David has scored 77 goals with 25 assists in 136 games for Lille – an impressive rate of attacking returns, particularly given the Canada international is also a hard-working centre-forward who offers as much off the ball as he does on it.
But David’s contract at the Stade Pierre Mauroy expired at end of the season as there was no agreement on a renewal. Instead, the 25-year-old is pushing for a move away from Ligue 1 with a host of major clubs across Europe expressing interest.
Barcelona emerged as an early frontrunner but it was Serie A powerhouses, Napoli and Juventus, who made the strongest advances to sign David. United were reported to be considering him as an option but have not followed up on this interest yet.
But Juventus have pulled ahead of their domestic rival in the race after launching efforts to sign David since November.
The Old Lady have presented a contract proposal but David has “given himself a mid-July deadline to respond to the offer,” Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport reveals.
This gives a six-week opportunity for United to re-enter the race for the forward and table an offer he cannot refuse. The options to for a new striker are rapidly dwindling this summer with the remaining options – Viktor Gyokeres, Victor Osimhen, Benjamin Sesko and Hugo Ekitike – all set to cost in excess of £60 million.
David, by contrast, presents a proven track record of goals, at an optimal age, with excellent link-up play and work rate, on a free transfer. INEOS cannot afford to let this unique market opportunity slip through their fingers.
The story that **Manchester United have completed a £110 million transfer for Jonathan David**, who’s in London undergoing a medical and about to sign a five-year deal, is **not accurate**. Here’s the current, verified situation:
—
### ✅ What’s True
1. **Jonathan David is out of contract** at Lille this summer and **available on a free transfer** ([sports.yahoo.com][1]).
2. **Juventus have emerged as early frontrunners**, reportedly presenting an offer and setting a **mid-July deadline** for David to decide ([sports.yahoo.com][1]).
3. **Manchester United have shown interest** and are believed to be in talks with David and his camp, but **no offer has been officially submitted**, nor has David committed .
—
### 🚫 What’s False
* There is **no £110 million fee**—David will move for **free**, not a transfer sum.
* He hasn’t arrived in London for a medical nor signed any contract with Manchester United.
* The narrative of a sealed “5‑year deal until 2030” is completely **unfounded**.
—
### 🧭 What Happens Next
* David will decide between **now and mid-July**, considering options from **Juventus, Napoli, Inter**, and possibly **Premier League teams** like Manchester United, Liverpool, or West Ham ([sports.yahoo.com][1], [transferfeed.com][2]).
* Juventus appear to be pushing hard with an early offer and strategy to prioritize David if other targets (like Gyökeres) fall through ([onefootball.com][3]).

### 🎯 Final Take
This is a **developing story**, not a concluded deal. David remains a free agent—no medical, no contract, and no record-breaking fee with Manchester United. Stay tuned: a decision is expected by **mid-July**, and United are **one of several contenders**, not the confirmed destination.
