Victor Osimhen could get dream Manchester United shirt number after transfer on one condition

Manchester United are set to focus most of their energy on attempting to sign a new striker in this forthcoming summer's transfer window.

After investing heavily in both their defensive and midfield options last summer, kick-starting the beginning of the Erik ten Hag era, United are poised to turn their attention to strengthening their attacking department. The Reds have struggled to score goals at a rapid rate of knots this season and their lack of centre-forward options is an issue that has been exposed throughout the campaign.

Ten Hag, as reported by the Manchester Evening News last week, is set to target two significant signings ahead of next season, in the form of a central-midfielder and a striker. The Reds temporarily bolstered both departments in January, signing both Marcel Sabitzer and Wout Weghorst on loan deals until the end of the season.
