Ralf Rangnick favourite might need January loan to ignite Manchester United career

The turnover of forwards in the Manchester United team over the past few years has been something to behold.

From the days of Romelu Lukaku leading the line, as recently as spring 2019 (he's had three big transfers since), to the 2020 era of Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood, United have almost come full circle as 2023 approaches. Erik ten Hag is favouring Rashford and Martial, like Ole Gunnar Solskjaer did, with neither of 2021's marquee additions — Cristiano Ronaldo and Jadon Sancho — in the first choice attacking trio as things stand.
