Former Manchester United winger Andrei Kanchelskis believes that his old team could have the new Arjen Robben on their hands if they land reported target Yevhan Konoplyanka.
Old Trafford boss Louis van Gaal is said to be keen on the 24-year-old winger, who is currently plying his trade at FC Dnipro.
Kanchelskis, who is from the same Ukrainian city as Konoplyanka, told Manchester Evening News: "Yevhen is a good player and he would be good for United.
"He is technically very good, he has good skills and he has a good shot on him. He likes to come more into central midfield areas and he does like to get a hit on goal.
"To me he is like Arjen Robben. He is similar to him and if that is the kind of player Louis van Gaal likes then why not go for Konoplyanka?"
Van Gaal made Robben his first purchase when he arrived at Bayern Munich in 2009.
