5 Strikers Who Could Be The Surprise Signing For Manchester United

Manchester United aren’t done with their transfers this season, Louis van Gaal seems to have one more ace up his sleeve as he tries to bring in one striker to aid Wayne Rooney next season. We come up with a list of players who could be the surprise signing for Manchester United and you know what they say, the sky is the limit, especially for a club like Manchester United.

1. Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Well, football is a weird place and with Zlatan hankering for a move away from PSG, well not hankering but he could want a new challenge after dominating the French league. The striker could be that X factor that United have wanted for some time now and playing him alongside Rooney is sure to provide a lot of fireworks both on the field and off it.

2. Kevin Volland

One of the players who has slowly made his name in the Bundesliga, Volland has been one of Hoffenheim’s best players but losing him would be a catastrophe for the Bundesliga club but not for Manchester United. Volland is a clinical finisher and can run with the ball as well, young, pacy and with an eye for goal, he could be one of the cheapest signings this season but one of the shrewdest buys in case any team does go for him.

3. Alexandre Lacazette

 

The top scorer in the French league last season, Lacazette was able to show everyone just how brilliant he is. The striker might have hinted that he wants to remain in Lyon for another season, but we have seen a lot of players make a jump when the right offer comes along. Manchester United have Champions League and could bring in the player, who would be a great asset for the team.

4. Mauro Icardi

This might be a little hard to pull off, but Ed Woodward has been doing the impossible recently, the player is one of the brightest players in the Serie A and with Inter Milan not doing as well as they used to, a proper bid might get the player to pack his bags and join Louis van Gaal’s team for next season.

5. Klaas-Jan Huntelaar

Klaas by name and class by finishing, the Dutch striker has been a revelation wherever he has played and has been brilliant for Schalke. The striker could be the surprise signing after spending a few years in the Bundesliga and getting his mojo back; he has played for Van Gaal and could do so for Manchester United as well.
