Mr. 85 million euros is not acclimatized! Manchester United is interested in the former Bee striker, worth 40 million pounds

After the first 11 rounds of the Premier League, Manchester United has 18 points from 11 games, 5 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses, ranking seventh in the Premier League standings, one place higher than the defending champion Liverpool, and only 1 point behind fourth-place Sunderland.

Although this kind of results cannot be said to be a revival, it is still a significant improvement compared to last season. The 3421 system Amorim insisted on is bearing fruit.

In 11 league games, Manchester United scored 19 goals and conceded 18. The offense was still good, and they only scored 1 goal less than the leader Arsenal. The defense was relatively poor.

In the 2024-25 season, Amorin took over from Ten Hag midway. Manchester United ranked 15th in the Premier League with 42 points in 38 games, 11 wins, 9 draws and 18 losses. They scored 44 goals and conceded 54 goals. Their points, rankings and other statistics were the worst in the Premier League era, and their offense and defense were lackluster. In the end, they lost the Europa League final and did not have any European wars. In the summer window, Manchester United still made obvious gains in the transfer market: they invested more than 200 million euros to introduce Sheshko, Cunha, and Mbemo, creating a new offensive trident.

Among the three, Mbemo has integrated the best, with 6 goals and 1 assist in 12 games; Cunha is much worse, with 1 goal and 0 assists in 11 games; and Sheshko, with 2 goals and 1 assist in 12 games, is the most disappointing.

Bundesliga forwards switched to the Premier League. Except for Haaland, most of the others were not acclimatized, such as Werner, Nkunku, Phil Kruger, etc. Sheshko was also one of them. Manchester United introduced him with a total transfer fee of up to 85 million euros. Not only was he slow to adapt, he was also injured recently.

According to media reports, Sheshko's injury is not serious, but he still needs to be evaluated.

In addition, the African Cup of Nations will be held from December 21 to January 18 next year, and Manchester United attackers Amad and Mbemo will be absent from club games. During that period, Manchester United had 6 Premier League games, against Aston Villa, Newcastle, Wolves, Leeds United, Burnley, Manchester City, and one FA Cup third round game.

According to the "Manchester Evening News", Manchester United may need to find a new center in the winter window, and Ivan Toney is a choice worth considering. When Ivan Toney previously played for Brentford, he was teammates with Mbemo, who is now playing for Manchester United. The two cooperated tacitly on Brentford's offensive end and both shined.

Manchester City said that a frontcourt trident composed of Mbemo on the right, Toni in the center, and Cunha on the left may bring strong offensive power to Manchester United and Amorim in the second half of the season. Tony is currently valued at approximately £40 million and has two and a half years left on his contract. Considering that he is about to turn 30, Manchester United may not spend too high a transfer fee to finalize this transfer deal.
