Manchester United hopes to sign a striker at the summer transfer window, and Reuben Amorim is ready to use one of his players to bring a new striker to Old Trafford.
The Red Devils struggled in front of goals this season, with both Rasmus Hozilund and Joshua Zirksey not making an impact.
Despite their struggle, United reached the semi-finals of the Europa League, but they were still able to finish the season with the trophy.
In their pursuit to solve their offensive problems, the Premier League giants are ready to make the move for strikers who are being chased by both Arsenal and Liverpool.
According to Daily Star, Man United is ready to offer Marcus Rashford to Aston Villa to sign striker Ollie Watkins in the summer transfer window.
Watkins scored 15 goals for the side of UNAI Emery this season, providing 12 assists in 47 appearances.
England International has been a consistent performer for Villa for many years since joining the club.
As Rashford is most likely to be sold by the club in the summer, the Red Devils are ready to use him in the deal that brings Watkins to Old Trafford.
Marcus Rashford is expected to leave Man United forever
Rashford joined the villa by renting out the winter transfer window after a fall with manager Amorim.
The English Winger does not seem to have a future for the club under current management, and he is expected to be offloaded by the club.
Villa could make the deal permanent to sign Rashford in a £40 million move, but United may be interested in Watkins.
The impressive shape of Rashford in the villa made Emery happy. Emery may never think about moving the loan to the club forever again, but he must allow Watkins to leave for that.
After Rashford arrives, seeing him fall into boring orders at the villa, Watkins may consider moving out of the club.
As for the addition of the offense, the Red Devils are also interested in Lyon’s Rayangcherki’s move.
