Since Rubin Emolian took over as Manchester United boss, the team's strategic blueprint has been rolled out once again after the reopening of the winter transfer window, with the intention of bolstering the squad with additions. According to The Sun, United have shown keen interest in the play of the midfielder in Nyanku and plan to drop him from the squad, a move that seems to be expected to materialize in the near future.
However, the performance of United's new striker Joshua Shukes has not lived up to expectations this season, and Rashford's form has continued to be in the doldrums. Faced with such a predicament, United's senior management realized that they must once again bring in attacking players to enhance the team's impact. With his versatility - he can play as a striker as well as a wing forward or attacking midfielder - Nicholson became the ideal candidate. He has been extremely efficient in scoring goals and has contributed 10 goals for United this season, showing great scoring ability in 16 matches.
Meanwhile, Chelsea's squad is overstretched, with Nygangu frustrated by his lack of sufficient playing opportunities. There were rumors that he was interested in leaving. United have taken advantage of this opportunity, preferring to sign the player rather than chase other star players. Last summer, Chelsea brought in Nygancourt from RB Leipzig for £52 million (about HK$520 million). It is reported that Chelsea will not sell Nygancourt for less than that.
Although Manchester United acquired Mason Mount from Chelsea last summer, the England international's frequent injuries have caused concern among fans, and Nicholas Niangou has been labeled as a "glass foot". Many netizens believe that United have not learned from their past mistakes.
