In recent years, intriguing hints for the violation of lepton flavour universality have accumulated.In particular, deviations from the Standard-Model (SM) predictions in B → D ( * ) τ ν/B → D ( * ) ν, in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and in b → s + − data were observed with a significance of > 3 σ, > 4 σ and > 5 σ, respectively. Furthermore, in a recent re-analysis of 2018 Belle data, it was found that the forward-backward asymmetry of B → D * µν vs B → D * eν disagrees with the SM prediction by ≈4 σ which would be an additional sign of lepton flavour universality violation. Since one naturally expects muon-related new effects to also emerge at some point in b → cµν decays, the above putative deviation might share a common origin with the other flavour anomalies. We show that a tensor operator is necessary to significantly improve the global fit w.r.t. the SM, which can only be induced (at tree-level in a renormalizable model) by a scalar leptoquark. Interestingly, among the two possible representations, the SU (2)L-singlet S1 and the doublet S2, which can both also account for the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, only S1 can provide a good fit as it gives rise to the scenario CV L, CSL = −4CT . While the constraints from (differences of) other angular observables prefer a smaller value of ∆AFB than the current central one, this scenario is significantly preferred (≈ 3σ) over the SM hypothesis, and compatible with constraints such as B → K * νν and electroweak precision bounds.
