Manchester United are trying to strengthen their front line ahead of Erik ten Hag’s debut season. With both the striker and right-wing positions in need of reinforcement....CONTINUE READING
1. Michael olise
If United are looking for a left-footed right-winger who can make an immediate impact in the Premier League, then they need look no further than Olise, who is already playing in the Premier League.
Reports at the beginning of the year suggested that the Frenchman may have a release clause in the neighbourhood of £35 million, but even if he cost a bit more, he would be worth the investment no matter what.
It would be difficult to pry him away from Crystal Palace given the positive atmosphere that Patrick Vieira has created there, but if United were successful in doing so, they would be gaining an attacking alternative that is both technically proficient and exciting. And now that he’s 20, he’s just going to become better from the first season he had.
2. Pino
The run that Villarreal had in the Champions League was the epitome of a great underdog tale, and the 19-year-old Pino, who played on the right flank, added energy and inventiveness to the team.
The Spanish winger performs the job in a more conventional manner, maintaining the width of the field rather than pushing towards the penalty area, and this provides an alternative strategy to players like Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford and can also boost their chances of winning the premier league
There may be some opportunity for negotiating with Villarreal despite the fact that his release clause is set at 67 million pounds, which means that he would not come much cheaper than Antony. On the other hand, United may be interested in signing his colleague Arnaut Danjuma, who is versatile and can play either up front or on the flank.
