Manchester United are targeting a new move for Mario Mandzukic with Juventus lowering their asking price from the summer, according to reports.
United came close to signing the Croatia international in the summer as a £14 million deal was reportedly finalised, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side pulled out of the transfer.
Solskjaer now admits that he is keen to bolster his attacking options in January having failed to sign a replacement for Romelu Lukaku.
But United’s options in the January transfer window will be limited as clubs reluctant to sell their first-choice strikers midway through a season.
Goal report that United are preparing to make a new move for Mandzukic in January.
And Juventus are willing to accept a lower fee of £9 million for the 33-year-old.
Mandzukic has not featured at all for Juventus this season while Maurizio Sarri has also left the Croatian out of his Champions League squad.
United, meanwhile, are struggling with injuries in attack with both Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford Sidelined.
Mason Greenwood is expected to start in attack for United’s clash against Arsenal on Monday evening.
