Man United target Leon Goretzka unhappy with lack of playing time, looking to move in January

Bayern Munich's Leon Goretzka is a long-term target for Manchester United and the German is reportedly unhappy with his lack of playing time at the Allianz Arena.

Here is all you need to know about the situation:

Goretzka has been linked with a move to Old Trafford for several years, but a move has not yet materialised.

The 27-year-old has made just seven starts in the Bundesliga this season, with Joshua Kimmich and Marcel Sabitzer preferred in central midfield.

Goretzka is said to be frustrated with his lack of playing time and is now considering his future at Bayern.

Manchester United are in need of a new midfielder and have been linked with a move for Goretzka in the past.

The Red Devils are likely to face competition from other clubs for Goretzka's signature, but they will be hoping to take advantage of his unhappiness at Bayern.

Goretzka is a versatile midfielder who can play in a variety of positions.

He is a strong tackler and passer, and he is also a threat going forward.

Goretzka would be a valuable addition to the Manchester United squad, and he would give Erik ten Hag another option in midfield.

However, it remains to be seen whether Bayern Munich will be willing to sell Goretzka in January.

The German club are likely to be reluctant to lose one of their key players, but they may be willing to cash in on him if they can get a good price.
