Manchester United are actively scouting the Bundesliga for a new striker as manager Erik ten Hag looks to strengthen his attacking options ahead of the upcoming season.
According to reports, the Red Devils have identified a top-performing forward from Germany's top flight as a prime target. While the player's identity remains undisclosed, insiders suggest United's recruitment team has been closely monitoring his performances.
Ten Hag's Search for Firepower
The Dutch manager is understood to be keen on adding more depth to his frontline, particularly after last season's inconsistent goal output. With Anthony Martial's future uncertain and Rasmus Højlund needing support, United appear ready to enter the transfer market.
Key attributes United are reportedly looking for in their ideal candidate include:
- Proven goal-scoring record in a top European league
- Physical presence to lead the line
- Ability to link play and create chances
- Potential for development under Ten Hag's system
Competition for Signature
The pursuit won't be straightforward, with several other European clubs also showing interest in the Bundesliga star. United's recruitment team will need to move quickly to secure their man before the new season begins.
This potential signing would follow United's recent trend of recruiting from the German top flight, having previously brought in players like Jadon Sancho and Marcel Sabitzer.
