FC Porto striker Hulk has emerged as a potential transfer target for Manchester United according to reports from Portugal.
The Brazilian hitman has impressed with the Portuguese side this season as they run away with their domestic league and are also into the last 16 of the Europa League, holding a 1-0 lead over CSKA Moscow from their first leg match in Russia.
Portuguese daily O Jogo report that United are keen on Hulk, having scouted him extensively, and will try to take him to Old Trafford in the summer.
The 24-year-old, who gained his nickname due to his strength and stocky build, would surely jump at the chance to continue his career with Sir Alex Ferguson’s side but, under contract with Porto until 2014, a sizeable fee would need to be paid.
Hulk has been prolific with Andre Villas Boas’ men, but this season is his finest yet, with nearly 30 goals in all competitions over 40 games so far.
