Manchester United Grow Interest In Aboubakar As Back-Up Striker

The Ronaldo chapter has been closed and now Manchester United are set to bring a back-up striker in the January window.

Cameroonian international, Vincent Aboubakar’s profile best suits the mancunian club as the board consider the 30-year-old an option, according to Sportsmole.

Aboubakar is now a teammate of the five-time Ballon d’Or winner in Saudi Arabia. However, the Riyadh-based club could be looking to part ways with the 30-year-old after the Portuguese icon’s arrival.

Erik ten Hag is looking to bolster his attacking options after the 37-year-old’s departure midway – through the season. But the club are looking for loan deals. Now, Aboubakar, Barcelona star Memphis Depay and Borussia Monchengladbach’s Marcus Thuram are being seen as options.

Manchester United ‘evaluating’ Vincent Aboubakar after Cristiano Ronaldo joins Al Nassr.

The Cameroonian has been at Al Nassr since the summer of 2021. He has previously enjoyed a fruitful career, mainly at FC Porto. The 30-year-old has also had spells at Turkish outfit Besiktas.

Ronaldo left United after his contract was terminated at the club following his controversial interview with Piers Morgan. The 37-year-old has now signed for the Saudi Pro League outfit.

As a result of the Portugal international’s untimely exit from the Old Trafford side, Ten Hag has only one natural number nine in Anthony Martial. However, the France international has been on the sidelines for most of the campaign.

Aboubakar is a decent number nine. He was the top scorer at the AFCON in 2022 as Cameroon got third place. However, will the 30-year-old make his way to Manchester in the current transfer window? Only time will tell.
