Manchester United need a new striker and they are pushing hard to make new additions this summer.

The Red Devils scored the lowest number of goals in the top half of the Premier League table in the 2023-24 season.

Teams like West Ham United, Newcastle and Aston Villa scored more goals than Erik ten Hag’s Man United team.
