Manchester United may bring in another striker to replace Rasmus Hojlund. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
There are discussions about the possibility of the Danish player returning to an Italian Serie A club after two unsuccessful seasons in England. According to journalist Laurie Whitwell, Ollie Watkins is on Manchester United's shortlist.
Negotiations with the Aston Villa striker could begin after Hojlund's departure. Interest in Ollie Watkins has long existed from Arsenal in London. Transfermarkt specialists value the 29-year-old English player at 40 million euros.
Last season, Watkins played in 54 matches for his team, scoring 17 goals and providing 14 assists. He has shown himself well in the team under Unai Emery.
Manchester United's management is actively working to strengthen the striker position and is working on bringing new players to the team. Due to disagreements with Rasmus Hojlund and poor results, the need to bring in a reliable striker is emerging.
Ollie Watkins is considered a good candidate for this position, and his transfer is expected to significantly strengthen the team's attacking line.
