One of the main tasks of United in the transfer market in the current offseason is the search for a hammered central striker.

The primary candidate for this role was Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata, however, lengthy negotiations with Blancos have so far been unsuccessful.

According to the Daily Mail, the Red Devils may refuse to acquire a Spaniard, and instead try to get Everton scorer Romelu Lukaku.

For the Belgian Manchester United is ready to pay a record 100 million pounds, while in the arsenal of United there is an additional tool in the negotiations. In exchange for a Lukaku deal, Manchester can sell the Toffees Wayne Rooney, whom they see as a substitute for Romel, who already announced his desire to leave.

In the season that ended Lukaku recorded 25 goals in 37 Premier League matches.
