Manchester United are reportedly leading the race to sign Marcus Thuram in a cut-price deal from Borussia Monchengladbach in the January transfer window.
The Red Devils are desperate to sign a striker this month following the acrimonious departure of Cristiano Ronaldo in November. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner has since made a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia side Al-Nassr, where he is expected to earn around £173million per year - the most valuable contract in world football.
Erik ten Hag's side have moved on from the Ronaldo saga and are targeting a move for France star Thuram after he impressed at the World Cup. Anthony Martial is the Red Devils' only out-and-out senior striker, although Marcus Rashford can also play through the middle if required.
