Coming live from Old Trafford, Manchester United make move to sign Ex-premier league FLOP who squandered a staggering 27 big chances in the Premier League in a 18-month spell with Chelsea. Manchester United are looking for a new striker who will provide competition for Rasmus hojlund and have turned attention to the Spanish international player who is also ready to make the move. Manchester United makes to sign premier league ‘UNWANTED’ striker. What happened to Joshua Zirkzee Manchester United and bad business. He’s not what we want😡🙀🙀

Manchester United are planning to sign a new striker this summer to add competition for Rasmus Hojlund next season. While Bologna’s Joshua Zirkzee has been frequently mentioned as a target, reports from Turkey suggest that United might be considering a different approach.

According to Sabah, Fenerbahce is actively pursuing Alvaro Morata, who has a £10 million release clause in his contract with Atletico Madrid. Fenerbahce aims to use the influence of their manager, Jose Mourinho, to lure the striker, offering him an annual salary of approximately £3.8 million.

However, Fenerbahce faces stiff competition, as Morata’s representatives are reportedly in talks with several European clubs, including Manchester United.

Should United go after Morata?
Despite Morata’s career-best season last year, scoring 21 goals and providing five assists in 48 appearances across all competitions, there are indications he might leave Atletico Madrid. The club might be looking to the future by promoting Samu Omorodion, which could encourage Morata to seek a new challenge. Fenerbahce is interested in reuniting him with Mourinho, who coached Morata at Chelsea. Given United’s link to Morata, they should carefully weigh their options.

Although Morata had an impressive season, he is now 31 and could soon be past his prime. Historically, United has encountered problems when signing high-profile players on hefty wages, later struggling with their lack of resale value. Morata, who could fall into this category, might come at a lower transfer cost but demands high wages, reportedly around £220,000 per week. Even if he agreed to a pay cut, his reliability remains in question, especially considering his record of missing clear-cut chances. During his 18-month stint at Chelsea, Morata missed a staggering 27 big chances in the Premier League.

Therefore, United should likely avoid pursuing Morata and instead focus on other targets to bolster their attacking options.
