Manchester United have already made a good plunge into the transfer market this summer, with Jose Mourinho already adding the likes of Fred and Diogo Dalot to the ranks.

The Red Devils simply must get closer to rivals City next season to appease growing fears among fans that the club are going to end up falling somewhat short in coming years in terms of winning silverware.

Here in the Tavern, we think a new striker should be on the shopping list, and we think German forward Timo Werner, a player who is valued at £54m by website Transfermarkt, would be a superb addition.

Werner has seen his stock rise over the last few seasons and once again was in impressive goalscoring form last term, knocking in 21 goals in all competitions. A fully fledged member of the German squad now, Werner will no doubt get his move to one of the giants of the game at some point, and despite failing to impress in Russia this summer, there will be plenty of interest in the youngster.

While United do have the likes of Marcus Rashford and Alexis Sanchez in the squad, another striker can never hurt, and a player of Werner's quality and potential would be a superb addition for the Old Trafford club.

United fans, what do you think? Good signing? Let us know in the comments!
