Manchester United have Cunha and Mbeumo, now what remains is the pure striker Ruben Amorim must and should have. After a lot of diving and a Viktor Gyökeres in place at rival Arsenal, two strikers are left as candidates.
We have been through rounds with Osimhen (personal terms out of this world), Gyökeres (wanted to go to Arsenal), Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea (too stiff demand from Chelsea), Ekitike (wanted to go to Anfield) and various others. So who is both available and relevant for Manchester United, three poor weeks before the start of the season?

The Athletic gives us the latest update: Benjamin Sesko and Ollie Watkins.
According to German journalist Florian Plettenberg, Manchester United are in talks with Benjamin Sesko’s representatives. United are said to have “presented their project”, as has Newcastle, reports the journalist. Now it will be up to Sesko to make the choice. When the 22-year-old gives his thumbs up, it is expected that bids for RB Leipzig will be made shortly.
And Ollie Watkins, who has previously been linked to United, the striker with 75 goals in 184 Premier League games? The English media reports United are also in talks with the Aston Villa star.
