Manchester United have reportedly held talks to sign RCD Espanyol striker Raul de Tomas. As per COPE (via HITC), the Red Devils have opened discussions with Espanyol regarding De Tomas' potential transfer this summer. The 27-year-old was the subject of interest of United's fellow Premier League clubs - Newcastle United and Arsenal - in January. Neither club made a move for the Spaniard, though, with Espanyol demanding a fee of nearly £60 million. However, as per HITC, De Tomas could be available for close to just £25 million. The forward's deal with the La Liga club runs till the summer of 2026. Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag is keen on bringing a natural finisher to Old Trafford this summer. De Tomas could prove to be a shrewd acquisition. The forward scored 17 goals in 34 La Liga games last season and also laid out three assists.

Manchester United make horror start to 2022-23 season Manchester United began their 2022-23 campaign with a 2-1 loss against Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford. United benefitted through an own goal from Alexis Mac Allister. Things went from bad to worse in their second league clash away at Brentford. The Bees blanked the Red Devils 4-0, with all four goals coming in the first half. United recorded just four shots on target from 15 attempts after going five from 19 against Brighton. It marked the first time United lost their first two games in th Premier League era as they slumped to the bottom of the standings.

Anthony Martial's injury has not helped matters. while Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford have struggled to replicate their pre-season highs. Cristiano Ronaldo cut an isolated figure up front against Brentford. With one year left in his contract and his future yet to be resolved, United need to sign an adequate replacement soon.
