Manchester United have narrowed their search for a new striker to two targets, with multiple reports naming Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins and RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Šeško as the preferred options.
The Red Devils spent the first two months of the transfer window focusing on reinforcements in attacking midfield. Matheus Cunha was signed from Wolverhampton Wanderers for £62.5 million ($83.6 million) early on, but negotiations over Bryan Mbeumo dragged on for weeks before an agreement worth as much as £71 million ($95 million) was finally struck with Brentford.
