Manchester United Leading the Hunt for the Most Expensive Striker in the World

Apart from Marcus Rashford’s brilliant performance throughout the 2022/2023 season, Manchester United is arguably still lacking in supply of goals. It was recorded in the Premier League that Erik ten Hag’s squad was only able to score 52 goals, fewer than Liverpool (71), Brighton & Hove Albion (70), Tottenham Hotspur (66), Brenford (57) and Fulham (54) who were all in below United in the league standings.

Neymar’s presence is considered to be able to provide United with even more goals, considering his impressive record while at PSG where he collected 118 goals and 77 assists from 173 appearances in all competitions.

However, the Red Devils also need to pay attention to the player’s injury record which is also quite bad. During his career in France, it was recorded that Neymar had been absent for approximately 731 or the equivalent of two years due to injury. He also ended the season early in February due to an ankle injury.
