Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap appears to be a player that Manchester United are watching closely as the season winds down. The striker has enjoyed a successful Premier League campaign, despite his side being 18th in the table.
The Englishman has scored 12 goals in the league and has also contributed two assists. He has displayed that he can be a lethal striker even with a side struggling to stay up in the top division. Surrounded by top players at Manchester United, Delap could have the chance to score upwards of 20 goals, which is something United will be desperate for after their striker woes.
Delap is a former player for the Manchester City academy and spent three seasons in the Premier League Two with the Under-23 team. Delap tallied a stunning 32 goals and 7 assists during his time in Manchester. He has also had time with Stoke City, Preston, and Hull City, before moving to Ipswich Town this season.
Two names on the summer transfer window shortlist for Man United
Delap has shown great potential and could offer a solution the Manchester United's goalscoring drought. Competition will be tough in signing Delap, as other Premier League sides are also interested in the striker. If United qualify for the Champion's League, this might make United an even more appealing destination.
Another top forward is emerging to be a target for the Red Devils. Wolverhampton's Matheus Cunha has put together another impressive season and he will most likely be leaving the Premier League club. Wolverhampton have had their fair share of problems this season, as they sit 17th in the table.
Cunha has been suspended for the last few Premier League games after picking up a red card, but he should be back in action at the weekend against Tottenham. Cunha will be desperate to get on the scoresheet in his first game back and hopefully add to his already impressive 13 goal season.
The forward has had back-to-back seasons with a double digit goal tally in the league. As with Delap, Cunha could be just the man Manchester United need up front. He is also influential in setting up goals, with 11 assists in the past two seasons.
Cunha plays with intensity, which is something United have been lacking in their players. He is also able to track back and help his side defensively to win the ball back. The Brazilian can provide threats from both inside and outside the box, making his play unpredictable and harder for defenders to stop.
Manchester United will again have to rival other clubs to sign Cunha, as Arsenal are also on the hunt for the Brazilian. But Amorim will be keen on the forward and will surely not back down from a transfer battle to sign this star player.
