Manchester United have sent scouts to watch Wayne Rooney’s DC United striker partner ahead of a potential summer move.
Luciano Acosta has struck up a fantastic relationship with the former England captain since his move in 2018.
And the Argentinean attacking midfielder admitted he is flattered by interest from Old Trafford.
Red Devils scouts watched Acosta at the weekend as DC United were battered 4-0 by LAFC, with Rooney picking up a straight red card for a horror challenge.
The 24-year-old almost moved to Paris Saint-Germain in January, but the Ligue 1 champions pulled out of a deal on deadline day.
As a result, United remain keen on signing the playmaker, who is keen to test himself in Europe.
“I’m obviously happy [United] were here,” Acosta said.
“They came to see me, and obviously I just went out and tried my best.
“Today wasn’t my day, we were up against a great opponent and in reality I’m just sad for the group’s performance today, and mine too.â€
After bagging 10 goals and 15 assists, Rooney tipped his strike partner for big things last season.
Although his contract runs out in December, the Red Devils record goal-scorer admitted the sky is the limit for Acosta.
“He needs to keep motivated,’ Rooney told the Washington Post in February.
“He’s a professional player, I’m sure he will.
“He now knows what kind of teams are interested in him. If he continues performing up to his ability, he will get there.
“He’s young and he’s talented, one of the best I’ve played with.”
