Manchester United is searching for a second Zlatan Ibrahimovic this summer. The last pure striker to score over 25 goals for the team in a single season was the Sweden international. In addition, it appears that Erik ten Hag is looking for a replacement for Anthony Martial, who is expected to depart the team this summer.
To compete with Erling Haaland at Manchester City, Manchester United is aware that they need a new striker.
Martial has struggled to maintain consistency at Old Trafford, while Wout Weghorst is about to return to Burnley after a disappointing loan season.
The legendary Ibrahimovic, who announced his retirement from sport on Sunday night, is the model for what United is hoping their newest striker acquisition can do.
The former Sweden international chose to rejoin with former Inter Milan manager Jose Mourinho when he signed with the Red Devils in 2016 with high hopes.
And Ibrahimovic lived up to the expectations, scoring 28 goals across all competitions as the team won the Europa League and Carabao Cup twice.
