Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag could have a challenge on his hands next season if he signs Benfica striker Darwin Nunez.
United are expected to be in the market for a striker this summer, with Ten Hag plotting a course back into the top four following a dreadful campaign for the club. The Dutchman will be backed in the market to the tune of £120million after United finished a disappointing sixth in the Premier League and without any silverware for a fifth straight campaign.
Edinson Cavani’s departure on a free transfer when his contract expires at the end of June presents a challenge for the club’s recruitment team. At least one new forward will be needed, with doubts over the future of Anthony Martial after his loan spell at Sevilla and with Mason Greenwood still unavailable for selection.
