Manchester United have reportedly made more inquiries about VfB Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy ahead of the January transfer window.

The Guinea international had been one of the deadliest strikers in Europe this season.

In 10 Bundesliga appearances, the striker had scored 15 goals and created one assist in all competitions.

He currently has more goals than Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe this season after joining Stuttgart from Rennes in 2022.

It was believed that not only Manchester United are interested in paying the buyout clause for the Guinea striker.

Newcastle, Roma, and AC Milan have also filed an inquiry into the player contract situation at the club.

Those clubs interested in the player see the January transfer window as a means of reinforcing the squad in a bid to finish at the top of their respective leagues.

The Manchester United attackers had failed to score enough goals this season, which had caused the team to sit in 6th place on the Premier League table.

It was revealed that Manchester United are extremely concerned about the goal-scoring burden that was placed on young striker Rasmus Hojlund.

Signing a new, experienced striker is what the club is focusing on before the end of the season.

Manchester United are also considering signing Ivan Toney, but they face a January bidding war for the English striker, who will be returning to on-field activities in January 2024.

Other Manchester United transfer targets for the January transfer window

In a bid to solve their attacking issues, Manchester United are making inquiries about the availability of Timo Werner.

It was revealed that the football club want to build areas where they are currently lagging.

Manchester United are looking forward to signing a center-back, and there are rumours that Todibo will fancy a chance of joining the Premier League giant ahead of the January transfer window.

Due to the poor performance of Sofyan Amrabat, the club also want to sign players for the defensive midfield position.

Benfica midfielder Joao Neves has been a Manchester United target, but spending £100 million on a player doesn't look feasible.

Serhou Guirassy Stats

The striker has made 271 appearances, scoring 95 goals and creating 15 assists in all club competitions.

The Guinea striker has received 24 yellow cards and two red cards.

Out of the 95 goals scored, 25 were for Rennais and 10 for FC. Koln, 30 for Stuttgart, 13 for Amiens SC, and seven for Stade Lavallios.

In addition, the striker scored eight goals for AJ Auxerre and a goal for Lille.
