According to recent report from ESPN, Manchester United have the option to sign former Atletico de Madrid and Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata.
According to various reports, the newly appointed Dutch manager Erik Ten Hag is not happy with the number of options that he has in attack. So, he is open to sign the Spanish number nine. As Morata is a different style of player in comparison to Cristiano Ronaldo, Anthony Martial.
Reports suggest that Ten Hag is looking for someone who has very good physical presence and sees Morata as the perfect puzzle to solve his attacking problems.
Manchester United were also interested to sign Bologna center-forward Marko Arnautovic. The Austrian player and Manchester United agreed the personal terms. He was very keen for this move to happen. But the demands presented by the Italian club Bologna was high as sky resulting in the United shying away to make the move for the Austrian player.
After the rumour of Austrian joining United broke out in Internet. Manchester United faced backlash. The red devils were not to keen to sign the striker, who has a history of being racist. They were also not too keen on adding Austrian striker to a squad which already has Ronaldo.
In the last winter transfer window, Spanish striker Morata was keen to play under Xavi. Personal terms were agreed between the player and the club. But the price for the striker seemed too inflated for the Catalan club. So they dropped the idea of signing former Juventus striker.
The Atletico striker was also rumored to join the Italian club Juventus on a permanent deal. It seems that both the parties have failed to come to an agreement owing to the price tag.
Despite having a massive restart to his life at Atletico de Madrid. His future with the Spanish capital club looks uncertain. Atletico yet haven’t registered Antonie Griezman for La Liga, if Manchester United come up with the good offer they would be forced to sell the Spanish striker to the Old Trafford.
Manchester United lost to Brighton in their first Premier League this season.
