Manchester United are reportedly preparing to move for three Premier League attackers during this summer's transfer window.

Manchester United are reportedly preparing to move for three attackers during this summer's transfer window, with Matheus Cunha, Liam Delap, Antoine Semenyo and Bryan Mbeumo all viewed as targets for the Red Devils.

Wolverhampton Wanderers' Cunha is believed to be Man United's leading target, with the Brazilian having a £62.5m release clause in his contract, and the 25-year-old is thought to be keen to make the switch to Old Trafford in the upcoming market.

Cunha has scored 17 times in 34 appearances for Wolves this term, in addition to providing six assists, and according to Sky Sports News, a move to Man United at the end of the campaign is very much on the cards.

However, it is understood that the forward is waiting to see whether Man United secure Champions League football for the 2025-26 campaign before making a firm decision on his future.

The Red Devils will take on Tottenham Hotspur in the final of the Europa League on May 21, with the winner securing a spot in the Champions League for next season, so it is a gigantic affair for the two English clubs.

Man United 'want Cunha, Delap this summer'

Delap has a £30m release clause in his Ipswich Town contract, meanwhile, following his side's relegation from the Premier League, and the Englishman is set to be on the move during the summer market.

The 22-year-old has scored 12 times and registered two assists in 35 Premier League appearances this term, and Man United are said to be determined to sign him during the summer market.

However, Ruben Amorim's side are facing competition from a number of clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle United, with the striker set to have a number of options at the end of the campaign.

Man United have also been linked with Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, who is on loan at Galatasaray, but it is understood that the 20-time English champions are not planning to move for him at this stage of proceedings.

Man United 'to choose between Semenyo, Mbeumo'

The 20-time English champions are said to want a third attacker this summer, with the club ready to choose between Bournemouth's Semenyo and Brentford's Mbeumo.

Semenyo has scored 11 goals and registered seven assists in 40 appearances for Bournemouth this season, while Mbeumo has come up with 18 goals and nine assists in 40 appearances for Brentford.

Mbeumo is being tipped to leave Brentford this summer, while Semenyo is also expected to be on the move, with Liverpool and Arsenal also linked with the attacking duo ahead of the upcoming market.

Antony, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho are among the Man United forwards set to leave permanently at the end of the campaign, while Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund are also being linked with departures.
