Manchester United’s attacking woes have been well-documented this season.

With Wayne Rooney struggling for form and Louis van Gaal shipping out every other striker over the summer, it’s surprising that a teenage Anthony Martial was the only attacking arrival at Old Trafford over the summer.

United fans have been at each others’ throats all year as their side have consistently faltered in front of goal, while club legends have questioned the club’s transfer policy.

A few big names have already been rumoured to be considering a move to Old Trafford, and now you can add Robert Lewandowski to that list.

The Pole has been in scintillating form this season, scoring 15 goals in 13 league games as well as inspiring his country to a Euro 2016 spot.

According to German newspaper Bild, Ed Woodward and Louis van Gaal are ready to offer the 27-year-old £11m-per-year as they try to tempt the Bayern striker to the Premier League.

They’re not alone, as Paris Saint-Germain are also thought to be readying a bid for the former Borussia Dortmund frontman.

But with Pep Guardiola linked with a move to Old Trafford, might we wait until the summer to see player and coach reunited in England.
