Manchester United could strengthen their attack in January.
Ruben Amorim’s system needs fresh attacking profiles in spark improvement.
Rasmus Hojlund has struggled on and off the pitch, having hit back at accusations made online.
Marcus Rashford is set to depart the club, having been left out of the squad multiple times.
Joshua Zirkzee another, who could be set to leave with links from Italy.
It remains likely that one or two attackers will leave in the upcoming windows.
This would pave the way for an elite attacker to join.
One who Amorim could provide instant faith in, to improve results in the short and long-term.

According to The Athletic, Chelsea are eyeing Ipswich Town’s Liam Delap to compete with Nicolas Jackson.
This would very much open the door for Christopher Nkunku to leave the club.
Concerns have been growing over Nkunku’s limited role in the Premier League.
He has started just twice in the league this season.
Enzo Maresca continues to use him regularly in the UEFA Conference League, however.
United have been linked with Nkunku of late.
Nkunku has scored 12 goals and provided four assists this season.
The Frenchman averages a goal contribution every 64 minutes.
Nkunku would very much be seen as a good for Amorim’s 3-4-3 system.
He thrived at RB Leipzig as a second striker, otherwise known as attacking midfielder.
Nkunku possesses the versatility to play across the forward line, as he can also play as a lone striker.
The only doubt in regards to the Frenchman is his tendency to be injury prone.
According to Transfermarkt, he has already been excused from action four times this season.
Nkunku also missed the majority of 2023/24 season under Mauricio Pochettino.
Matheus Cunha is another option but would be difficult to sign from Wolves.
If Nkunku becomes surplus to Chelsea’s plans, United must act quickly.
