Manager Erik ten Hag is believed to be assessing the options available in the market ahead of the January window. According to reports, the Dutchman has identified the ex-Gunner as a player he may try and entice to Old Trafford, which would undoubtedly damage Gnabry's relations with his old friends at the Emirates.
United's attack is looking particularly blunt at the moment, especially out on the flanks given Ten Hag is currently unable to call upon Antony and Jadon Sancho. The former has taken a leave of absence after allegations of domestic abuse were made against him in Brazil, while the latter has been exiled from the fold due to a fall-out with the manager.
As a result, attentions have turned to Gnabry and Spanish publication Nacional, via the Daily Mail, claim that United are aiming to lure the Germany international away from Bayern Munich at the turn of the year. It is a move that would certainly frustrate Arsenal fans, despite the fact that the 28-year-old only made 18 appearances for the club after progressing through the youth ranks.
When analysing his time in English football, Gnabry is arguably best remembered for his dismal loan spell with West Brom where he made just three appearances and was written off by then-Baggies boss Tony Pulis.
He joined Werder Bremen in 2016 and after one stellar season at the Weser Stadium joined German giants Bayern Munich, where he has remained ever since. It was at the Allianz Arena where Gnabry's performances became too difficult for the Germany national team to ignore and he established himself as a vital player for club and country.
