After signing Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford, United are eyeing a move for a prolific No. 9. Ruben Amorim is thinking of a team who can\u00a0score more and more goals, and thus, they bought two top goalscorers of Premier League (2024\/25 season), i.e. Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo. They are now looking at three of the options that is available in the market.<\/p>\n
Manchester United are showing no signs of slowing down in the transfer market. Under manager Ruben Amorim, the Red Devils are focused on building a high-scoring team, and the hunt is now on for a prolific No. 9.<\/p>\n
Amorim wants to boost his side\u2019s goal output even further, and United are considering three striker options currently available in the market:<\/p>\n
Watkins had an outstanding campaign with Aston Villa, continuing to prove his credentials as one of the most consistent forwards in the Premier League. His movement, link-up play, and goal-scoring instincts make him an ideal fit for Amorim\u2019s attacking system. However, United have yet to make any formal contact with the Midlands club regarding a potential move.<\/p>\n
Another Premier League option is Chelsea\u2019s Nicolas Jackson. The Senegalese striker had a mixed season but showed flashes of brilliance with his pace and ability to stretch defences. Although Jackson remains on United\u2019s radar, no talks have taken place so far between the two clubs.<\/p>\n
The Slovenian forward is one of the most exciting young strikers in Europe. At just 22, \u0160e\u0161ko has shown incredible potential at RB Leipzig with his physical presence, finishing ability, and intelligence in the box. He has been discussed internally at Old Trafford, but his \u20ac80 million price tag remains a significant obstacle. At this stage, United are reluctant to go that high for a young and relatively unproven talent at the top level.<\/p>\n
With Amorim aiming to form a lethal attacking force, United\u2019s next striker signing could be crucial.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
