It has been reported that United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer targeted the 23-year-old striker earlier this summer, and Everton told him that they want £80 million as transfer fee for him.
The report has claimed that the Red Devils were ‘stunned’ by Everton asking for £80 million for the youngster.
Important player for Everton
Calvert-Lewin scored a hat-trick at the weekend, as Everton continued their fine start to the new Premier League season.
The 23-year-old has established himself as an important player in the team under manager Carlo Ancelotti and has taken his game to another level under the Italian tactician.
According to WhoScored, the former Sheffield United striker scored 13 goals and provided one assist in the Premier League for the Toffees last season, and has scored four goals in two league games so far this campaign.
For Everton to finish in the top four of the Premier League table this season, the young striker will have to bang in the goals and will have to be on top of his game throughout.
