Manchester United to sign Croatian star in January?

Juventus striker Mario Mandzukic could reportedly make the move to Manchester United when the transfer window reopens in the New Year.

  • The Croatian was fancied to replace Romelu Lukaku prior to the Premier League transfer deadline this month but a deal failed to materialise.

    United have since had to rely on Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford for the striking duties with the young Mason Greenwood providing back-up, but they are likely to consider a stop-gap option at the turn of the year.

    According to Gianluca di Marzio, the Red Devils are likely to recruit a new centre-forward in January after sanctioning the loan deal for Alexis Sanchez, who has linked up with Inter Milan.

    The same publication claims that Mandzukic would be open to a winter transfer to Old Trafford after turning down advances from Paris Saint-Germain recently.

    United do have the option of pursuing Fernando Llorente on a free transfer but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer does not believe the Spaniard would fit into the club's style of play.
