Manchester United Target “Exceptional” Forward Available for £30 Million
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United are showing strong interest in acquiring an “exceptional” striker who could be available for just £30 million this summer.
The Red Devils are looking to strengthen their attacking options after struggling to create chances in their recent 0-0 draw against Manchester City. Manager Ruben Amorim is reportedly prioritizing the addition of a new forward in the upcoming transfer window.
While Napoli’s Victor Osimhen has been mentioned as a top target, United are also closely monitoring Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap. The 22-year-old has impressed in the Premier League this season, scoring 12 goals in 30 appearances despite his team’s struggles.
Delap’s release clause was previously thought to be around £40 million, but Romano reports it will drop to £30 million if Ipswich are relegated. With the club currently 12 points from safety, this scenario seems increasingly likely.
Pundit Danny Murphy has praised Delap as a “super talent” with no obvious weaknesses. His combination of physical and technical abilities make him an enticing prospect for top clubs.
At just £30 million, Delap could prove to be a bargain signing for Manchester United as they look to revamp their attacking options. The club may look to capitalize on Ipswich’s likely relegation to secure the promising young striker’s services.
