Manchester United has strengthened their attack and caretaker service this summer.
Ruben Amorim completely reorganized the team’s attack this summer by signing players like Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.
For the position of goalkeeper, United signed Senne Lammens of Royal Antwerp on the day of the deadline.
However, there is another striker that United has tried to sign in the last moments of the summer transfer window.
Man United explores the movement for former striker Danny Welbeck
Amorim wanted another striker to the club and according to football transfers, the Red Devils had agreed personal terms with former striker Danny Welbeck who now plays for Brighton.
The 34 -year -old scored ten Premier League goals last season and his performances impressed his former club.
United trying to add depth to their attack after the departure of Rasmus Hojlund in Napoli, Welbeck was considered by the club for a late partner.
According to the report, Brighton decided not to sanction the transfer because they did not have enough time to sign a replacement.
Welbeck will now potentially move to Old Trafford in the January transfer window.
Welbeck could return to Old Trafford in January
United explored a decision for another Brighton player, midfielder Carlos Baleba, but the Premier League team was reluctant to sell it this summer. During talks for Baleba, the Red Devils discussed the potential to sign Welbeck.
Jason Wilcox was personally involved in discussions to bring Welbeck back to Old Trafford.
Welbeck scored 29 goals in 142 senior appearances for the Red Devils, but due to the competition for places at the club, it was sold in Arsenal in 2014.
He can provide experience to Man United Attack, but at the age of 34, the signing has no meaning for the Amorim team. With Sesko and Joshua Zirkzee already in the back, Welbeck would have practically no impact on Old Trafford.
Man United has plans in place to explore the surprise decision for the Chelsea midfielder in January
