Manchester United have only netted 13 goals in 12 Premier League fixtures this term and the low tally is down to the poor conversion from their strikers.
The Red Devils splashed the cash to lure Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta last year and the Danish forward has only scored 2 goals in 13 appearances this season.

On the other hand, summer signing, Joshua Zirkzee, has only netted a single goal in 18 appearances in all competitions since joining the club from Bologna.
Therefore, new manager, Ruben Amorim, must sign a proven quality center forward to improve the situation at Old Trafford and one of his own stars is in the lime light.
According to TDF, Viktor Gyokeres is the priority signing for Man Utd to reinforce the strike-force for the Portuguese manager.
The Swedish striker is the most in form goal scorer in the continent at the moment. He has netted 24 goals in all competitions in just 19 games.
The Spanish media outlet have mentioned that Man Utd are prepared to bid around £65million to hire the services of Gyokeres from Sporting CP.
In his debut game in charge of the club, Amorim could only see his side earn a single point against newly promoted Ipswich, who were able to create more chances than United.
The Portuguese manager will eventually take time to properly implement his new three at the back system but he surely needs a top finisher up front as Hojlund and Zirkzee are not good enough.
In your view, should Man Utd bid £65million to sign Gyokeres?
