Manchester United’s summer plans are already taking shape under Ruben Amorim, who remains focused on reshaping the squad with a stronger domestic push in mind.
Several high-profile names have been linked with Old Trafford in recent weeks, as the club continues to scout both established stars and rising Premier League talents.
While fans await clarity on the future of loanees like Antony, Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford, attention has quietly turned to the younger pool of attackers across the league.

The club is understood to be targeting versatile forwards who can fit into Amorim’s demanding attacking system and provide depth.
With Chelsea also active in the market for promising strikers, United are under pressure to move decisively to land their key targets early in the window.
One name now firmly on the radar is Ipswich Town forward Liam Delap.
Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna has now confirmed that Liam Delap is preparing for a summer move, telling reporters: “Yes, he’s looking at his options for next year.

“We support him with that.”
Delap has already held meetings with Manchester United and Chelsea as both clubs weigh up a move for the young striker, who has just one year remaining on his City contract.
Despite his limited top-flight experience, Delap’s physicality, movement, and pressing ability have caught the eye of Amorim’s scouting team.
United are believed to view Delap as a long-term squad option who can offer a different profile to Rasmus Hojlund in the striker role.
The fact that Delap is homegrown and available at a relatively modest fee only strengthens United’s interest, especially as they continue to work within financial constraints.
Talks are expected to continue in the coming weeks, with Delap keen on a move that will offer regular minutes and a clear development plan.
If all goes to plan, he could become the latest talent to swap blue for red – and follow in the footsteps of others who found their stride at Old Trafford.
