The Red Devils have looked short of form and confidence in the final third and they need to improve in the New Year.

A couple of signings could assist them and reports claim that they are likely to prioritise loan deals due to the lack of funds.

RB Leipzig's Timo Werner is one of the strikers on their radar while they are also interested in Bayern's Eric Choupo-Moting.

His teammate and German star Thomas Muller is also on their radar alongside in-form Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy .

Among the quartet, Guirassy is unlikely to be available on loan but he has a low release clause of just €17.5m in his current deal.

Guirassy is said to be flattered by the interest from the Red Devils, but it remains to be seen whether they can afford him.

The club may need to part ways with Anthony Martial to recoup funds for Guirassy. A deal may need to be completed soon.

Guirassy will be travelling for the African Cup of Nations in mid-January and a deal could be difficult to conclude after that.
