Off the back of the Red Devils pulling out of a deal for Bologna striker Marko Arnautovic, it is claimed that United have been offered the chance to sign Morata. The Spaniard knows the Premier League from his time at Chelsea. During his two seasons at Stamford Bridge (2017-19) he managed 24 goals in 72 appearances across competitions. The experienced centre-forward has become somewhat of a journeyman during his career, having played for the likes of Chelsea, Atletico, Real Madrid and Juventus. There are question marks over his future with a year left to run on his current deal at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium. He made 48 appearances for Atletico across competitions last season, scoring 12 goals whilst contributing nine assists. 433@433THREE for @AlvaroMorata as Atlético beat Juventus in a friendly 11454334THREE for @AlvaroMorata as Atlético beat Juventus in a friendly https://t.co/EV91AMrOng Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is eager to bolster his attacking options at Old Trafford as uncertainty looms over the future of Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese star has reportedlyrequested the club to let him leave should an acceptable offer arrive. He is keen to play for a team who are contenting in the Champions League but the Red Devils do not want to lose him this summer. Ronaldo was United's top goalscorer last season with 24 goals in 38 appearances but didn't start the opening game of the season. The Portuguese star came on in the second half of his side's shock 2-1 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford. Meanwhile, Anthony Martial's injury issues have once again disrupted his progress in the United side despite an impressive pre-season. The French striker managed three goals in five friendlies but picked up a hamstring strain against Atletico in a pre-season friendly on July 30. Is Morata a risk worth taking for Manchester United Morata could be a clever deal for United Time is running out for Manchester United to get their transfer business done and it seems all of their efforts have been invested in signing Barcelona star Frenkie de Jong. In the meantime, plenty of potential targets have slipped through their fingers, leaving them with a lack of alternative options. The market is now scarce for strikers to target, with the likes of Erling Haaland, Darwin Nunez, Gianluca Scamacca and Hugo Ekiteke all having moved on. Álvaro Morata@AlvaroMorataInolvidable!!!!!

If United can bring Morata to Old Trafford for a respectable fee, he may be a good short-term solution for the club. The striker's experience with Chelsea, albeit not the most impressive of stints, may bode well for the Red Devils. Paul Merson predicts Arsenal vs Liverpool and other EPL GW 10 fixtures!
