Erik ten Hag has called on Manchester United to sign a striker “as soon as possible” to allow enough time to integrate a new recruit into the team, with the manager admitting the club’s failure to do so so far this summer is not ideal.
Having strengthened his midfield with Mason Mount and replaced goalkeeper David de Gea with André Onana, Ten Hag is targeting Atalanta’s Rasmus Højlund or Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani as his new No 9.
