Manchester United: Solskjaer’s key transfer targets revealed
By Bence Bocsak
The latest reports have revealed the key targets the Manchester United boss has identified ahead of the summer transfer window.
A metamorphosis often happens to football clubs. They are inevitable. Players age, form dwindles and a cycle must resume. In the current moment Manchester United are going through a similar transition.
For years the Red Devils have morphed and failed to come out of their shell, ever since the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson.
Yet under the current leadership of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer things could soon change for the club. The Norwegian spent a long stint as a player and honed his skills under the guidance of Sir Alex Ferguson himself.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer understands the key elements which yield greatness and he has begun to implement his philosophy at Old Trafford.
Of course the old adage goes that Rome was not built in a day, and thus the process will take time. Patience is a necessity and it has often been neglected at Manchester United since the departure of Ferguson.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is still only on the periphery of establishing his vision at the club. He has done well to integrate some exciting young prospects into the team through the likes of Brandon Williams and Mason Greenwood.
The Norwegian has also built up an important core in Harry Maguire and the new addition of Bruno Fernandes. But Ole Gunnar Solskjaer needs much more.
The summer will be crucial to ensure he has all the elements to build a strong Manchester United squad and according to the Evening Standard Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be targeting three key positions.
According to the report Solskjaer has a ‘striker, right winger and a number ten on his wanted list.’
The report does not allude to who those candidates might be but given the latest transfer rumours it is safe to assume, the right winger could be Jadon Sancho, the number ten might be Jack Grealish and the striker might possibly be Moussa Dembele or Timo Werner.
The three additions would most certainly help Solskjaer establish an extremely strong side capable of competing at the top of the Premier League.
Would you be happy if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer managed to sign his three key targets, or does he need more?
