EKO HOT BLOG reports that former Manchester United striker, Michael Owen, has identified that the club needs to sign a new centre-forward to compete against Arsenal and Manchester City in the upcoming Premier League season.
Owen made this statement while acknowledging the Red Devils’ impressive form under manager Erik Ten Hag.
According to Owen, Manchester United is doing well in the Premier League this term, but the playing staff is still some way short of being challengers to Arsenal and Manchester City.
He believes that the team needs a new centre-forward, and that’s an absolute must for next season.
Owen also thinks that Manchester United is still a few players short in comparison to the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City at the moment.

Overall, Owen feels that Manchester United needs to continue improving its playing staff to be competitive in the Premier League next season.
