Manchester United are desperate for a prolific striker to join the club in the summer after a poor showing from Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee.
The pair have failed to provide consistency in front of goal, with United’s results suffering as a result.
Currently sat in 13th place in the Premier League, Ruben Amorim’s side have been trying to adjust to his system, rather than Erik ten Hag’s who they were assembled under.
However, it’s clear that The Red Devils need a strong goal scorer to reliably convert their chances in the final third.
A whole host of targets have been scouted, with the top candidates for a summer arrival being Viktor Gyokeres, Jonathan David, Hugo Ekitike and Victor Osimhen.
Now, one of this list could be up for grabs for over £30 million less than his release clause.

Viktor Gyokeres available in cut-price deal
The Mirror has reported that Viktor Gyokeres has made a verbal agreement with current side Sporting CP that allows him to leave for £50 million instead of his £86.3 million release clause.
The Swedish striker has been in incredible form this season, grabbing 40 goals and 10 assists in 41 games.
As the striker found his form under Amorim, it’s understandable that United have been linked with the striker since Amorim’s arrival in November, with Gyokeres already knowing his play style.
However, this cut-price deal would still need United to spend £50 million, which could be questionable given their current financial struggles.
