In the context of major deals like Viktor Gyokeres, Victor Osimhen and Hugo Ekitike are all in a standstill due to the high fee, MU can turn to more reasonable options. Here are 3 pricing strikers that coach Ruben Amorim may consider.
Mateta has just gone through the most impressive season in his career at Crystal Palace, scoring 17 goals and has 4 assists after 46 appearances in all competitions. Particularly in the Premier League, he has 14 goals and 2 assists in 37 matches – a prominent number with a mid -range player.
Mateta's contract with Palace is still valid until June 2026, but according to experts, he can leave for about 40 million pounds – and this number can also negotiate. With a physical play, good pressing ability and sharp goalscoring instincts, the French striker is a piece suitable for the system of Amorim.
At the age of 27, Mateta is at the maturity of his career and can be effectively combined with CunHa and Mbeumo in the new attack trio at Old Trafford.
Once the goal of many Premier League giants, Dusan Vlahovic is expected to leave Juventus this summer to find new challenges. Last season, the Serbian striker scored 15 goals and had 5 assists after 42 appearances. In total, he had 56 goals and 14 assists in 143 matches for Juventus.
Although it is unable to recreate the explosive form like when he was wearing Fiorentina, Vlahovic was still considered a potential striker if he was played in a suitable environment. With a fee of only about £ 38.5 million, this is a “gamble” that Man United can accept, because if promoting the right capacity, Vlahovic will become a true “killer” in the Premier League.
The Canadian striker will officially become a free player on June 30, after not renewing the contract with Lille. This is a golden opportunity for MU when there is no transfer fee and can invest directly in the salary or personal terms.
Jonathan David has just experienced a brilliant season with 25 goals and 12 assists after 49 matches. In total, he scored 109 goals and had 30 more assists after 232 appearances for Lille. Notably, he also scored 10 goals after only 18 matches in the Champions League – proving the ability to shine in the big stage.
At the age of 25, David is a modern striker, speed, technique and diverse finish. With no transfer fee, he absolutely deserves to be a serious choice for Man United in the construction of attack.
