Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has suggested Facundo Pellistri is among the attackers who could offset Cristiano Ronaldo's departure.
Pellistri, 21, is yet to make his United debut more than two years on from arriving for £9million and he has been an unused substitute in 13 of their last 14 games. The Uruguay international's agent claimed at the start of November "his departure is imminent" but Ten Hag highlighted Pellistri's performance in the behind-closed-doors draw with Everton last week.
"Two things. First, that goals can also come out of our own club," Ten Hag said of United's issues up front. "See (Alejandro) Garnacho, see (Anthony) Elanga, see Pellistri, who made a good impression on the World Cup and last week in the game against Everton and in training, so that is first.
