Manchester United are set for an important transfer window with Champions League qualification on the horizon, and they've now identified their top target in attack.
Signing a new midfielder appears to be a major priority for United heading into the summer transfer window, but it might not be the only position they look to strengthen.
Champions League qualification will likely force the Manchester club into building a deeper squad filled with more quality, but they have to get over the line first.
The Red Devils have seen a resurgence under Michael Carrick since he joined the club, replacing Ruben Amorin in January.

According to a report from Sports Boom, Juventus star Kenan Yildiz has been identified as United's top target ahead of the summer transfer window.
Juventus are hoping to keep hold of Yildiz heading into the 2026/2027 season, slapping a price tag of £105m on his head for any potential suitors.
United face competition from a host of clubs in the Premier League for his signature, and they are preparing an offer in the region of £78m.
Yildiz, described as being a 'superstar', also has interest from Liverpool, but United are clearly looking to race ahead with a bid being readied.
Man Utd Could be More Attractive Than Liverpool

Liverpool do have a strong chance of qualifying for the Champions League this season, but there's no doubt United have been the more impressive side this campaign.
It's been a disappointing season for Arne Slot's side, which might make it difficult for them to attract the calibre of player they did last summer.
United are currently three points ahead of Liverpool, but that doesn't tell the whole story.
Since the Red Devils got rid of Amorim and brought in Carrick, they've drastically turned a corner, and the performances they've produced under the new manager are more in line with a title-chasing side.
