Coming live from Old Trafford, ” in all honesty assessment Manchester United won’t do any better if they don’t acquire a striker who is capable of giving goals every season. One of this 3 strikers will be perfect for United they should get one”. With the recent departure of striker Anthony Martial, who ended his nine-year spell at Old Trafford last month, the Red Devils are keen to bolster their attack. Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has urged the club to sign one of three-man striker shortlist’ including a Premier League star and TWO of Europe’s most prolific forwards, ahead of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s first transfer window at Old Trafford. Ferdinand just know what we need to perform next season💯 but who do you think will be perfect for man United🙀😱🙀
Manchester United is reportedly targeting three strikers for the upcoming summer transfer window.
Despite the uncertainty around manager Erik ten Hag’s future, the club is determined to strengthen the squad ahead of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s first summer at the helm. With Anthony Martial departing after a nine-year stint at Old Trafford, United aims to boost their attacking lineup.
As per ESPN, the club’s shortlist includes Brentford’s Ivan Toney, Lille’s Jonathan David, and Bologna’s Joshua Zirkzee.
Currently, Danish forward Rasmus Hojlund is the only established striker at United. After a challenging 2023-24 season, the club is keen to add reinforcements.
Joshua Zirkzee, who moved to Bologna from Bayern Munich in August 2022, finished the previous Serie A season with 11 goals in 34 games, placing him joint-15th among the top scorers. His efforts helped Bologna secure fifth place and a UEFA Champions League spot for the first time since 1964. Despite his performance, Zirkzee, who also tallied four assists, might not stay at Bologna, especially with his £34 million release clause attracting interest.
Ivan Toney and Jonathan David, both nearing the end of their contracts, could be available at lower prices.
Additionally, RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko is on United’s radar, though he is likely to remain with his current club. The 21-year-old had drawn significant interest from Arsenal and Manchester United, with both clubs vying for his signature.
Ajax’s Brian Brobbey is another potential target, mainly due to ten Hag’s influence.
As United seeks to bolster their squad, securing a top striker remains a priority to improve their attacking capabilities for the next season.
