According to reports, Manchester United is on the hunt for new attacking players and Ruben Amorim is eager to bring in reinforcements. After careful consideration, the club has narrowed down their search to a four-man shortlist, which includes Nigerian striker Victor Boniface. This 23-year-old has been making waves in the football world, scoring eight goals in just 15 matches for Bayer Leverkusen this season. With 11 caps for his national team, Boniface has proven to be a valuable asset for Leverkusen, helping them secure the league title last year with 14 goals in 23 league games.
Despite having a contract until 2028, United is showing great interest in Boniface. According to sources in Germany, the club is willing to invest a large sum of money to acquire the "beefy attacker" from Leverkusen. However, Boniface is not the only Nigerian catching United's eye. They also have their sights set on Victor Osimhen, who is currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli. With a release clause of €75m, Osimhen could be available for United to sign in January.
Joining Boniface and Osimhen on United's shortlist are Paris Saint-Germain's Randal Kolo Muani and Eintracht Frankfurt's Omar Marmoush. It is reported that Marmoush is on United's radar and a deal could be reached if they offer around €50-60m for the Egyptian striker. Meanwhile, Kolo Muani has not been a major topic of discussion at United, but they are still keeping an eye on him in Paris. Despite a €95m move last year, the French international has fallen out of favor at PSG and could be available for transfer.
United has recently entered a new era with the appointment of Ruben Amorim as their new manager, replacing Erik ten Hag. Amorim's first game in charge ended in a 1-1 draw against Ipswich Town on Sunday. The team is now preparing for their next match against Bodo/Glimt on Thursday. With the help of their potential new strikers, United hopes to make a strong comeback and secure a win under their new manager's leadership.
