‘This week’: Fabrizio Romano says Man Utd will try to sign ‘devastating’ second striker, Murtough has approved
Real Madrid appears to be lacking in resources up front, but Manchester United has supplied a makeshift remedy.
With their forward options narrowing, United have offered striker Antony Martial to Los Blancos, according to MD. With Vinicius Junior out, only Rodrygo Goes, Joselu Mato, and Brahim Diaz are available to play ahead of their midfield diamond. It would be a loan with a purchase option at the conclusion of the season.
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti declared the transfer market closed on Thursday, but that was before to the loss of Vinicius.
They appear unlikely to sign Martial, who has historically failed in La Liga and may have questions about his capacity to produce at the Santiago Bernabeu. However, Martial’s style fits the role Vinicius has been playing as a direct and pacy danger who can run at defenders and in behind.
