Manchester United head coach, Erik ten Hag, has suggested that Facundo Pellistri, Alejandro Garnacho and Anthony Elanga are among the three forwards who could replace Cristiano Ronaldo following the Portugal captain’s departure from Old Trafford.
Recall that Ronaldo’s contract with Man United was terminated last Month following his explosive interview with Piers Morgan.
“Two things. First, those goals can also come from our own club,” Ten Hag said of Man United’s issues up front ahead of their Premier League tie with Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night.
“See (Alejandro) Garnacho, see (Anthony) Elanga, see Pellistri, who made a good impression on the World Cup and last week in the game against Everton and in training, so that is first.
“But yes, we are aware we have lost a striker [Ronaldo], so I think we have to get a striker in, but it has to be the right one, and the right one needs to bring the quality into the team and not just add to the squad, because that gives you only problems.
“The criteria is high here at Man United.”
