Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has spoken out on the Marko Arnautovic links.
United suffered a 2-1 defeat to Brighton in their first Premier League game of the 2022/2023 season on Sunday. Pascal Groß scored a double for the Seagulls meanwhile Alexis Mac Allister scored an own goal for the Red Devils.
Following the game, ten Hag was asked about Arnautovic links. The Red Devils have been linked with a move for the Bologna striker.
“I don’t go into names because I think in this pre-season maybe 250 players are linked with Man United, so that’s it,” said the United boss.
“We have two strikers, maybe a third one with Rashford as well – who we considered as a striker, but he had a really good pre-season on the left side and also today he had two really good chances coming in from the left-hand side.
“So I think it was the right decision to do it like this. But we didn’t have the typical nine, it was not available today.”
