Manchester United plans to pursue Vincent Aboubakar of Cameroon as Cristiano Ronaldo’s replacement.
Because Cristiano Ronaldo, a 37-year-old Portuguese goal machine, recently joined the Saudi Arabian team, the duo are currently teammates at Al Nassr.
Late last year, Manchester United cut off Ronaldo’s contract after the superstar from Portugal spoke poorly of the team’s owner, manager, and other club officials in an interview with Piers Morgan.
With only Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford as forwards, his departure has left the Red Devils in need of a third.
The January transfer market is officially open, and Ten Hag’s team is trying to strengthen their assault and considering a few different options.
Aboubakar, a Cameroonian forward for Al-Nassr, has emerged as a United alternative with Memphis Depay of Barcelona.
Ronaldo was signed by the Arabian team to a €200 million contract per year, and they intend to start him straight away.
When Aboubakar is no longer needed, he may be loaned away during the winter transfer window.
The 30-year-old forward’s speed might help United fill the gap in their attack.
