"Manchester United" has spent a fortune to replace Robin van Persie, the last attacker to score more than 20 goals in a season.
Lent.az reports with reference to foreign media that Ruben Amorim intends to spend £207.5 million on players such as Brian Mbemo, Mateus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko this summer. After the failures of the club's previous attackers, this trio must make a lot of effort to make progress.
Let's see which of Manchester United's attacking players has been the most unsuccessful signing. The table shows the number of goals, transfer value and average cost per goal:
Angel Di Maria arrived from Real Madrid in 2014 for £60 million as a superstar. The Argentine spent just one season in Manchester before being sold to PSG.
He started the season well, scoring in a match against Leicester City. However, he only managed two goals in the Premier League, each costing the club £20 million.
Former Ajax player Anthony cost the club £85 million when he reunited with Erik ten Hag, but failed to live up to expectations and scored just five goals in the Premier League.
Each goal cost Manchester United £17 million and the club is now trying to sell the player before the transfer window closes.
