Man United Backed To Sign This 28-year-old Striker In January

Manchester United have been tipped to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez during the January transfer window by former Arsenal and Birmingham City defender Matthew Upson.

The player turned pundit told The Debate on Sky Sports that Raul Jimenez is a good option for Manchester United as they try to solve their central forward problem.

Red Devils manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is expected to strengthen his attack in the winter transfer window in January and Raul Jimenez could be a very good option according to Matthew Upson.

The club has not replaced Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez since the two attackers left Manchester United for Italian Serie A leaders Inter Milan in the summer.

Lukaku is a Belgian international and he joined Inter Milan from the Red Devils for a fee of around £73m, while Chilean international star Alexis Sanchez signed for the Nerazzurri on loan until next summer.

Manchester United have been linked with several attacking options ahead of the January transfer window.

These options include Erling Haaland of Red Bull Salzburg in Austria, Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho and many more.

For Raul Jimenez, he was signed for £30m by Wolves in the summer after spending a successful loan season from Portuguese champions Benfica in the last campaign.
