Man United Plotting shock move for incredible Chelsea striker as Joshua Zirkzee’s alternative this summer

Regarding Man United’s desire for a new striker, Romelu Lukaku has become a surprising Joshua Zirkzee substitute.

Both AC Milan and United have identified the Belgian as their “Plan B,” according to sources originating in Italy.

The 31-year-old would make his Old Trafford comeback after spending two seasons playing in Manchester.

Although he had difficulty showcasing his abilities at the time, Ten Hag seemed to be in favor of giving him another opportunity.

MEN Sport says: “Now I am surprised that this rumour has emerged. If United fail to land Zirkzee, does Lukaku fit the sort of profile they are looking at?

At first glance, no. But the ideal striker would be someone like Lukaku who could be the perfect deputy to Rasmus Hojlund.

“A striker who boasts an impressive record in the Premier League, Lukaku is the ideal person to help the Denmark international adjust further in England.

Despite a quite decent debut campaign, Hojlund currently has too much pressure on his shoulders, hence the need for a new striker.

“However, a move for Lukaku isn’t likely to go down well with supporters after his difficult spell last time out.”
