Man United’s attacking problems are old news. Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee – who were brought to score goals – have been abysmal so far, and the club has already started looking for new offensive options.And while most European sides – including Premier League teams – are fighting over some of the most renowned and most wanted net-busters like Viktor Gyokeres, Victor Osimhen, Alexander Isak, and Benjamin Sesko, the Red Devils have allegedly turned to domestic market where they have aimed – Liam Delap!Man United prefer Liam Delap over Viktor Gyökeres and Victor Osimhen as they look to solve their goalscoring problems, according to various reports 👀 pic.twitter.com/yqygN9cPTy— Football on TNT Sports (@footballontnt) April 7, 2025 The 22-year-old striker has been the only light at the end of the tunnel – or a silver lining, if you wish – at Ipswich this season, as the Tractor Boys are on the verge of an instant return to the Championship. Yet, their terrible season hasn’t been an obstacle for Delap to show what he’s made of.Namely, the son of former Southampton, Sunderland, and Stoke City (among others) midfielder and Ireland international known for his fantastic long throws, Rory Delap, has found the net 12 times in the Premier League this season, scoring almost half of all Ipswich’s EPL goals.What can you expect when a defender is your best striker?Given that he’s already proven himself in England’s top tier, United could avoid the “surprise factor” they experienced with Hojlund and Zirkzee, who found it hard to adapt to the physical PL style of football. For the robust Delap, it’s an accomplishable challenge.Interestingly, the Englishman is Derby County and Man City’s child. He debuted in senior football with the Cityzens, though they didn’t see his potential, sending him on several loans to Stoke City, Preston North End, and Hull City before selling him to Ipswich for £20 million last July.Now, he could reinforce City’s fiercest rivals.##NAJAVA_MECA_8842332##
