that 33-year-old striker Mandzukic is prepared to say yes to United, with the Red Devils long been linked with a move for the Croatian striker. However, a deal is far from completion.

Manchester United are keen to sign a striker given that Romelu Lukaku left the club in the summer to join Inter Milan. Lukaku has been on fire for Inter, while United have struggled for goals as Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford struggle.

West Ham spent big in the summer on Sebastian Haller, but the big Frenchman has only scored four goals so far. Albian Ajeti was also bought, but the Swiss ace has also struggled at the London Stadium.

Tottenham sold Vincent Janssen and Fernando Llorente in the summer and did not bring in another striker. It leaves Harry Kane with little back-up, the next best being Troy Parrott. Spurs fans reacted to the report that they could sign Mandzukic.
