Manchester United want to add more firepower to their squad this summer, and they are ready to make a move for Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic, according to CaughtOffside.
Man United were the third-highest scorers in the Premier League this season, only scoring two fewer than champions Arsenal, but it appears as though club chiefs want to further boost the frontline next season, especially with the return of Champions League football to Old Trafford.
Much of the talk in recent weeks has been around the new midfielders the Red Devils could add to their squad, with up to three new faces expected to arrive in that position should Manuel Ugarte follow Casemiro through the exit door.
Fabrizio Romano has revealed that only something 'crazy' will stop United completing a deal to sign Atalanta midfielder Ederson, while they continue to be linked with a host of other midfielders as they look to complete a major rebuild.
Nottingham Forest star Elliot Anderson is their top target, but a deal is unlikely because of Forest's transfer fee demands and the fact that the player's preference would be to join Manchester City instead.
Real Madrid's Aurelien Tchouameni, Newcastle United's Sandro Tonali and West Ham United's Mateus Fernandes are among their other targets.

According to CaughtOffside, United are also ready to complete a 'major attacking rebuild' this summer, and they have five strikers on their radar ahead of the transfer window opening on June 15.
While Galatasaray's Victor Osimhen is the 'dream' target, they have also identified Juventus centre-forward Dusan Vlahovic as another big-name player on their shortlist.
Benjamin Sesko is currently leading the line at Old Trafford with the likes of Bryan Mbeumo playing back-up, but the club are said to want stronger depth and different profiles alongside the impressive Slovenian.
United are likely to look to replace Joshua Zirkzee in the squad, with the Netherlands international being linked with a move back to Serie A.

With his contract due to expire at the end of next month, Vlahovic is about to be one of the hottest free agents on the market.
CaughtOffside claim that should his exit from Juventus be confirmed in the coming weeks, then United won't be alone in their pursuit of the Serbia international.
Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich are also keen on the 26-year-old, who has scored 68 goals in 168 matches for Juve since joining them in 2022.
One of the potential hurdles to any deal for the big striker is his salary, with Vlahovic currently earning around £400,000-a-week at the Allianz Stadium.
He will need to reduce that wage significantly if he wants to secure a move to most clubs in Europe, including United, who are looking to offload more high earners this summer following the departure of Casemiro, with Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford also on huge wages at Old Trafford.
