Gary Lineker has just spotted £60m Man United transfer solution

Manchester United are in the market for a centre-forward this summer in case you have been living under a rock since the Europa League final defeat.

Liam Delap was the initial target, but he chose to move to Chelsea instead, with the lure of Champions League football being too much for the ex-Manchester City man to resist. Since then, the hunt for a centre-forward has gone cold as United have refocused their efforts on the No.10 positions.

Matheus Cunha has arrived and United remain in talks with Brentford for Bryan Mbeumo. However, the hunt for a striker has gone cold.

Ollie Watkins and Ivan Toney have both been linked with Old Trafford this week while Viktor Gyokeres, arguably the manager's top pick, seems to be out of reach. With options thin on the ground, Amorim and his recruitment team will arguably be open to suggestions and it appears they have one from an English football legend.

Speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, Gary Lineker gave a rave review for Borussia Dortmund's Serhou Guirassy. "We’re still waiting to see what Arsenal do, and there are a few other Premier League sides looking for a No. 9 – is he worth taking a punt on?" Lineker asked rhetorically.

"He’s strong, he’s quick – his finishing was really good all season and he was prolific in the Champions League as well." The 29-year-old is currently competing at the Club World Cup in the United States this summer and has scored three goals in four appearances in the international tournament - including a brace against Monterrey in the round of 16.

However, it is his form in Germany and the Champions League which catches the eye. After scoring 11 in 22 for Stuttgart in his first season in the Bundesliga, he bagged a whopping 30 goals in the 2023/24
