Top European Clubs Target Multiple Strikers, Defenders for Summer Transfers

Manchester United, despite a poor 15th place finish last season and no European competition next year, are actively pursuing new strikers to address their record low goal tally. They have signed Brazil international Cunha and remain interested in Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo, who prefers Manchester over Tottenham. Chelsea, under new ownership, are also targeting new talent to strengthen their squad, focusing on wide areas with players like João Pedro and Nicolas Jackson, while balancing options behind their forwards. Meanwhile, FC Barcelona plans a defensive overhaul, eyeing center-backs Marc Guehi, Cristhian Mosquera, and Antonio Silva as potential replacements for Ronald Araujo. Southampton is looking to boost creativity in midfield, considering players like Coventry's Jack Rudoni and Portugal's Diogo Nascimento. Additionally, Real Madrid aims to add an experienced center-forward similar to Joselu, with candidates including Budimir and Fullkrug to provide reliable backup for their attack.
