It's a shock. Manchester United is preparing for a drastic recruitment.

Team Talk, a British media outlet, reported on the 14th (Korea time) 'Manchester United can recruit Jamie Vardy (Leicester City) as a free agent'

Manchester United have worked hard on recruiting strikers in the last two seasons. In the summer of 2023, I held Rasmus Hoylun in my arms. It invested £72 million in the transfer fee. However, he scored only two goals in 19 English Premier League (EPL) games in 2024-2025 season. In the summer of 2024, he signed Joshua Zirkjay. Djirkjay has scored three goals in 24 league games this season.

United are struggling in the silence of attacking resources. He is ranked 13th with 8 wins, 5 draws and 11 losses (29 points) in 24 league games this season. During the season, he parted ways with Erik ten hach and appointed Ruben Amorim. But the expected effect is still there.

Team Talk says 'Manchester United have recently invested more than £100 million in recruiting strikers. Still want to improve his striker position. But it can be difficult for the club to make another big spend. Citing a report by another media outlet The Athletic, the media could look for a Manchester United FA player. Vardy and Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Everton) are amazing names.

Born in 1987, Vardy has scored seven goals and three assists in 22 league games this season. Compared to scoring 23 goals in 35 league games in the 2019-2020 season, the figure is insufficient.

Team talk is 'Body is not enjoying his prime. In addition, Manchester United have been recruiting young players in recent years. Body recruitment is against policy. If you recruit Vardy, something new will happen.'"

The outlet said 'Manchester United is no longer at the top of the league. We can retreat further. We need a better striker than Vardy' he added.
