The Bayern Munich star Manchester United want to replace Jadon Sancho

Manchester United started the 2023/24 season hoping to improve on last year's good performance and compete against Manchester City for the Premier League title. In addition, coach Erik Ten Hag relied on the team's forwards: Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Antony, Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho and Facundo Pellistri. He even brought in Rasmus Hojlund, who arrived from Atalanta in exchange for a fortune.

However, things did not work out as expected and just a few weeks later the alternatives were reduced. Antony was given a leave of absence while police in England and Brazil investigate allegations of domestic violence against him. And Jadon Sancho was punished by the club after a quarrel with Ten Hag.

With this scenario, the Red Devils need to hire replacements and have already chosen one of them. According to Nacional, the favorite is Serge Gnabry. The forward has had great performances in recent years at Bayern Munich, and even scored a goal against Manchester United last week, in the German side's 4-3 win in the Champions League.

However, he has plenty of competition there. The Bavarians have top forwards like Kinsgley Coman, Jamal Musiala, Leroy Sané, Thomas Muller, Mathys Tel, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Harry Kane, so coach Thomas Tuchel does not always consider Gnabry a priority for the team. This could help The Red Devils convince him to leave.

It could be a second chance for him

Perhaps the possibility of playing at Manchester United would interest Serge Gnabry, not only because of the importance of the club, but also because it would mean a second chance in Premier League. The forward played there at Arsenal and West Bromwich, but could not stand out. With The Gunners he played only 18 games and scored one goal between 2012 and 2015, while at The Albion he barely played 3 games in a year.
