JAKARTA Manchester United has three striker options that they can buy in the transfer window next January if efforts to buy money for the Gakpo failed.

The Dutch national team player was linked with a move to Manchester United last summer but failed to materialize. However, he is still under the Red Devils' radar in the January transfer window.

Interest in Gakpo has been increasing lately. The reason is, the 23-year-old has established himself as one of the most talented strikers in Europe lately.

Gakpo performed brilliantly with PSV Eindhoven last season and managed to maintain his consistency in the ongoing 2022/2023 season by scoring 12 goals and 15 assists in 19 appearances so far.

In addition, his performance at Qatar's 2022 World Cup which is underway is also extraordinary. Currently he has scored three goals in the most grand competition.

For this reason, Gakpo is considered a good addition for the Red Devils squad in the nearest transfer window. However, if it fails then the club based at Old Trafford has several alternative names that can be tried to sign.

The following is the attacker option that MU can buy if it fails to recruit Gakpo:

Kylian Mbappe

The Paris Saint Germain striker is arguably one of the best strikers today in the world of football. He is one of the deadliest threats for the opposing teams.

Mbappe has scored 19 goals and has recorded five assists in 20 appearances for PSG in the 2022/2023 season. In addition, he is also in good form with the French national team at the 2022 World Cup Qatar.

In the quadrennial competition he has scored five goals and recorded two assists in four matches. He is also a versatile player who can play in various attacking positions.

According to reports, MU is currently starting to try to target Mbappe as a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, whose contract has just been decided. However, the Red Devils seem to have to compete with Real Madrid.

Rafael Leao

The 23-year-old AC Milan winger is in his best form of the season. He scored seven goals and made six assists in 20 appearances for reigning Serie A champions.

In addition, Leao also performed well for Portugal at Qatar's 2022 World Cup. In total he has scored two incredible goals in four games.

According to Irish Sun Sports, Manchester United is reportedly starting to be interested in signing the Portuguese player as an alternative to kickoff Gakpo. So, it's interesting to wait for Manchester United to get his services.

Joao Felix

Atletico Madrid's striker is one of the most talented young players in the world of football today. His intuition in attack was considered extraordinary.

Currently, Felix is not very consistent with Atletico in the 2022/2023 season, but has scored four goals and also recorded three assists in 18 appearances for the La Liga team.

Despite being sluggish at the club, the 23-year-old appeared impressive for Portugal at the Qatar World Cup. He managed to score one goal and recorded two assists in three games.
