It’s expected that Manchester United will be in the market for at least one new forward this summer. They’ll be out to replace Edinson Cavani when his contract expires, although they’re also going to be looking for a long term replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo who is expected to leave next year at the conclusion of his own current deal.
Beyond these two, Marcus Rashford has endured a season to forget at Old Trafford this year, therein casting doubt over his long term United future too.
With United’s recruitment team already sure to be working on a list of potential targets, it'd be hard for them to ignore the performances of Giovanni Simeone in Serie A this season. Coming into the campaign, Simeone was better known for being the son of Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone than his own footballing performances.
