Coming live from Fabrizio Romano, “we are not making any bad signings this summer we are getting players that are hungry and he is perfect for our team this summer we are not giving Man city and Arsenal any chance”. According to reports, Man Utd are keen to acquire the services of Youssef En-Nesyri who has been dubbed as DANGERMAN and have submitted first official bid of £17m as sir Jim looks to bring competition to United attack. Man Utd get greenlight to sign “dangerman” who’s outscored Hojlund. United scouting team are doing a great job to approve this player to United. The fans are happy with this news. This guy is no jokes at all scores goal for fun🙀🙀🙀
Manchester United’s inconsistent form throughout the 2023/24 season underscores the urgent need for reinforcements. Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS are set to make comprehensive upgrades, particularly targeting the centre forward position.
With Anthony Martial sidelined due to injuries last season and not receiving a new contract, there’s a vacancy in the squad. Ratcliffe is eager to secure a new striker, and reports from Italy indicate that Manchester United has set its sights on Youssef En-Nesyri.
The Red Devils are reportedly preparing an offer for the Moroccan centre forward, following recent interest. En-Nesyri, 27, could be acquired for a reasonable fee, estimated between £13 million and £17 million. He has expressed his eagerness to join United, signaling his approval for the move.
En-Nesyri’s addition would significantly bolster a team already featuring talents like Bruno Fernandes and Rasmus Hojlund. Despite experiencing goal droughts, Hojlund had an impressive debut season, while Fernandes consistently orchestrated the team’s attacks.
En-Nesyri, who was pivotal for Sevilla in La Liga despite their overall lackluster performance, outshined both Fernandes and Hojlund. Last season, he started 28 league matches as the sole striker in a 4-2-3-1 formation, netting 16 goals compared to Fernandes’ and Hojlund’s ten each in the Premier League.
Key statistics from the 2023/24 season include:
| Stats | En-Nesyri | Hojlund | Fernandes |
|——————-|———–|———|———–|
| Goals | 16 | 10 | 10 |
| xG | 10.8 | 7.64 | 10.01 |
| Goals per game | 0.5 | 0.3 | 0.3 |
| Shots per game | 2.2 | 1.3 | 2.7 |
| Scoring frequency | 161 min | 217 min | 312 min |
| Big chances missed| 13 | 13 | – |
En-Nesyri’s consistent goal-scoring, evidenced by his 16 goals and an xG outperformance of 5.2, highlights his clinical finishing. As a target man, he is formidable in aerial duels, adding a new dimension to United’s offensive lineup.
Football analyst Ben Mattinson praises En-Nesyri as a “quick, strong, powerful finisher” and a “danger man,” attributes that make him well-suited for the Premier League. However, his contribution to play beyond scoring is limited, as he ranks in the bottom 99% for completed passes in La Liga, according to FBref.
Acquiring a player of En-Nesyri’s caliber for around £13 million represents a potential bargain for Manchester United. It’s rare to find a player outperforming key team members available at such a price.
