Man United dream attack after Ollie Watkins and Bryan Mbeumo transfers completed

Bringing in attacking options appears to be a priority for Manchester United in the current summer transfer window as they look ahead to the 2025/26 Premier League season.

The club have already completed the capture of Matheus Cunha from Wolves in a £62.5 million deal. The Brazilian is able to play anywhere along the front line and in the number 10 position.

Another player who has shown versatility which could be useful to Ruben Amorim’s side is Bryan Mbeumo. United have so far seen two bids turned down by Brentford for the forward, but are expected to return with a third bid with the club retaining confidence that a deal can be done.

If that is a case he is again a player who can be deployed in both one of the wider roles or as a central striker. United are however still keen on bringing an out-and-out striker to the club this summer.

One of the latest names to be linked is Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins. The striker scored 16 Premier League goals last season, despite not always being first choice.

It’s reported that Villa are sticking to their £60million valuation that they put on the striker in the January window. If they are to pursue their interest, United would likely need to bring money in via sales.

One player who could leave is striker Rasmus Hojlund. The Dane has failed to pull up any trees since moving to Old Trafford in the summer of 2023 with last season seeing him score just 10 goals in 52 appearances in all competitions.

Inter Milan are one of the club to be linked with an interest in the striker. They now however seem to have turned to Parma’s Ange-Yoan Bonny as a potential alternative.

If United could cash in on Hojlund this summer, it would bring in some extra cash to be able to spend on players
