Manchester United have reportedly been dealt a blow in their respective pursuits of Everton’s Romelu Lukaku and Lazio’s Lucas Biglia, but they could be preparing a big-money deal for Alvaro Morata if he returns to Real Madrid from Juventus.

Ten Premier League teams have outscored United this season, so firepower is undoubtedly on the agenda, and after bagging 25 goals and seven assists in all competitions, Lukaku is an excellent candidate.

As his numbers suggest, the 23-year-old stood out at Everton this season:
