Van Nistelrooy has urged United to sign “extraordinary” Serie A hitman in January, could be a gamechanger – report

Erik ten Hag’s future was on the line and his new recruit Joshua Zirkzee was still not firing while the wide men were also not at the top of their game.

Cut to the present, the Red Devils have won two on the trot, scoring 10 goals in total with all of the wingers looking in red-hot form.

However, with Rasmus Hojlund still sidelined, United will need their summer signing from Bologna to start scoring. He has shown his ability to link up play but a forward is known by the goals he scores.
