Manchester United eyeing this Juventus forward to fill in for Lukaku

Manchester United have been lagging behind the points table purely because of their inability to produce goals up front. The Red Devils have not found a replacement of Romelu Lukaku and Rashford has not been able to produce a number 9 performance.

The 12th placed United have had the worst start to their Premier League season in a decade or so and are in badly need of a striker, come the earliest. Mario Mandzukic has come as a potential search for the number 9 position.

The Croatian international has not got to life under Maurizio Sarri and has been warming the bench since the arrival of Gonzalo Higuan. The 33-year-old striker lacks game time and is potentially in the last year of his career. Not a good option but perfect considering the crisis Manchester United are in.

Manchester United have agreed terms with the Old Lady for bolstering their attack and signing Mario for a fees around £10 million. The absence of Anthony Martial and his fondness to get injured is yet another reason for United to screen the deal.

The Red Devils have managed to score only 8 odd goals in last 10 of their games and most of which have come from outside the box. They lack a finisher in the box and if there’s one thing Mario possesses in, its his finishing from the box.

The latest news hold that Manchester United have already had a verbal agreement with Mario Mandzukic for £10 million and it is only a matter till January that the news will be official.
