In an interview on April 24, Berbatov talked about recruiting MU strikers this summer: "Manchester United need Victor Osimhen right now. Signing Delap is pointless and stupid. Chido Obi-Martin needs to develop by learning from the best, not from someone who has failed in the Championship with three different teams."

The former Bulgarian striker also frankly said that defenders will feel comfortable when facing strikers like Delap. "With Osimhen, all defenders will have to keep a distance of 5m from him. That will give the satellites around Osimhen more space to play," Berbatov analyzed.

According to the Daily Mail , Manchester United intend to activate the £30 million release clause for Delap at Ipswich. The club's recent relegation opens up opportunities for Premier League teams. However, MU will have to compete fiercely with Arsenal, Chelsea or Newcastle.

Delap is still in no rush to make a decision about his future. He has ambitions to play in the European Cup next season. If MU cannot win the Europa League, the possibility of the "Red Devils" failing in this deal will be very likely.

The Old Trafford team is forced to increase the "firepower" in the attack when Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee are disappointing. Italian media said MU is willing to sell Hojlund for a fee of 50 million pounds to invest in a more classy striker.
