Manchester United are still looking for a striker! The "Red Devils" are monitoring the situation as according to ESPN sources, the club leaders are no longer interested in Bologna's Marko Arnautovic. The English were in talks with the Italian club to reach an agreement, but the demands of the latter seem to have been unacceptable to United.
The English have also been influenced in their decision by the Arnautovic incident in the match between North Macedonia and Austria. During this meeting, the striker used racist language towards opposing fans and was punished by UEFA as a result. The footballer then apologized for the gesture, insisting that nothing was intentional.
United manager, Erik Ten The Hague, worked with Arnautovic when he managed the FC Twente team, but it seems that the Dutchman must now think of other options. Another name that has been mentioned recently is that of Alvaro Morata. The 29-year-old has only 1 year left on his contract with Atletico Madrid, and has played for the last 2 years on loan at Juventus.
Ten Hag meanwhile are looking for a physically strong striker as United's attack for this new season has many question marks. Martial is currently injured, and comes to the team after a loan spell at Sevilla, where things did not go well. This has called into question the Frenchman's ability to cope at the top level of the Premier League.
Cristiano Ronaldo meanwhile is still not in his optimal form, having missed most of the pre-season games for personal reasons. The future of the Portuguese at Old Trafford is also unclear, as CR7 has repeatedly requested to leave for a club that offers him the opportunity to play in Champions League.
