Manchester United have re-entered the race to sign sports striker Viktor Gyoker, as manager Ruben Amorim is about to reunite with his former striker to improve the club’s offensive options.
The Red Devils are already working to sign a new Number Nine, as they have already secured Matthews Cunya’s signature from the wolves and are working to close the deal with Brentford’s Brian Mbuemo.
Amorim saw the offensive struggle last season, failing their Europa League victory, and a 15th place finish in the Premier League forced him to consider the prolific attacker move.
Reuben Amorim wants Man United’s Gyoker
United are keen to add gyoker to the ranks. His familiarity with striker Amorim’s tactical approach and his proven goalscoring record makes him an ideal candidate to lead the United frontline.
However, the lack of European competitions next season could challenge Gyoker to convince them of the move.
Interest in Gyoker comes after United sought a set-off for Liam Dellup, who chose to join Chelsea from Ipswichtown despite United’s discussions with the Red Devils.
Delap’s decision has changed the focus at Old Trafford, and the club is currently actively investigating alternative striker options.
United considers Swedish International ideal for the role, as Gyoker boasts an extraordinary goalscoring record in the sport under Amorim management, including 54 goals in 52 appearances last season.
Amorim could persuade Gyoker to move
The existing relationship between players and managers may prove important as the talk progresses.
No formal bids have been filed yet, but United’s early moves show an increased intention to pursue attackers in demand.
The Red Devils are also linked to the move of Alexander Mitrovich, the attacker of Al-Hilal, who left Fulham to join the Saudi Arabian side.
