Manchester United has been linked with a move for an excellent Espanyol striker Raul de Tomas which may bring calmness
Manchester United‘s hunt of a new striker continues, with Espanyol forward Raul de Tomas the latest player to be linked with a transfer to England.
After failing to sign Marko Arnautovic owing to fan response, it seems apparent that an other target will be signed before the transfer window closes.
Alvaro Morata, a former Chelsea striker, has been linked with a transfer to Manchester following a time at Juventus in Italy.
Mauro Icardi of Paris Saint-Germain has also been linked with a loan transfer to the club.
Raul de Tomas is the next striker on Erik ten Hag’s list of prospective striker transfer targets, according to Caught Offside.
According to Fabrizio Romano’s Daily Briefing, after scoring 17 goals in La Liga last season, Manchester United might turn their attention to the Espanyol striker.

“A number of big-name attackers were offered to Manchester United following the failure of negotiations for Arnautovic,” the writer said.
Atletico Madrid is still hoping to maintain Alvaro Morata, while Mauro Icardi is out of the PSG project and has been approached by a number of teams, but no agreements have taken place.
“Raul De Tomas is still available on the transfer market, and Man United has been informed of his availability.”
After establishing himself as a consistent goal scorer, the Spanish international would be an ideal choice to round out United’s assault.
He is an exquisite and technically skilled player who is underappreciated by many because of the restricted scoring possibilities that come with playing for a mid-table team.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s future is now uncertain, which means the club cannot risk being without a recognised striker other than Anthony Martial until January.
Ten Hag and football director John Murtough will be working hard behind the scenes to secure a handful of players in less than a month.
