At the moment, Anthony Martial is the only natural no.9 in the Red Devils’ squad – which is causing manager Erik ten Hag some problems due to the Frenchman’s injury-prone nature.

While it has been reported<\/a> that United are close to signing Wout Weghorst on loan for the rest of the season, the club are planning to sign a high-quality, long-term striker only in the summer. However, Romano has revealed that it is too early for any concrete targets to be named yet. That is, in part, because of the situation revolving around the club being put up for sale and possibly being sold by the Glazers in early 2023.<\/p>\n
