Financial concerns force Man Utd to consider 'plan C' before Gyokeres or Osimhen

Manchester United are reportedly being forced to make a smaller transfer in the attacking phase due to financial problems.

According to the portal Give Me Sport, United are prioritising adding a centre-forward in the upcoming summer transfer window, with Ipswich Town's Liam Delap emerging as a serious target.

Delap still has over four years left on his contract, earning £20,000 a week, but United are weighing up a potential move.

Sources say United are impressed by Delap's potential, especially given his standout performances for a struggling Ipswich side. The interest comes as doubts continue over the long-term futures of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee at Old Trafford.

Meanwhile, Ruben Amorim, linked with a managerial role at United, has identified Viktor Gyokeres and Victor Osimhen as dream signings.

However, financial concerns could push the club towards the more affordable option of Delap, who represents a promising long-term investment.

The current value of Delap in provides is 25 million euros, while the player has scored 9 goals and provided 2 assists in 25 games for Ipswich this season. /Telegraph/
