Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag 'favours signing three forwards' instead of Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid.

The Red Devils are most certainly in the market for a forward, either in January or next summer.

The future of Cristiano Ronaldo is less than certain, while Mason Greenwood is unlikely to play for the club again.

United were said to have interest in Felix over the summer, but The Mirror claims that ten Hag wants to secure a traditional center forward.

He wants someone who has an eye for goal, not necessarily a wide forward, as he already has plenty of those in his squad.

The likes of Lille attacker Jonathan David, Bayer Leverkusen talisman Patrik Schick, and Lyon star Moussa Dembele are the names mentioned.
