Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs wants the club to sign a new forward this summer following Friday’s 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur.
The Red Devils signed Odion Ighalo on loan from Chinese Super League club Shanghai Shenhua in January and extended the Nigerian deal until January 2021 last month.
The 31-year-old has scored four goals in nine appearances for the Red Devils.

Giggs however believes United need more firepower upfront and should bring in a quality striker in the summer.
‘I would say we definitely need a centre forward,”Giggs told Premier League Productions.
‘A centre forward who, if a team is deep, he’s going to play that centre-forward role. Be on the end of passes, be on the end of crosses, score 20, 25 goals.
‘I still think if we’re going to catch City and Liverpool we’re still three or four players short. ‘But definitely promising and exciting with Bruno and Pogba coming into the team.’

Smart one @ Chima E Samuel. The pretence of been happy with Ighalo’s signing, these lots are struggling to bottle. Lolzz
I support Giggs, as a Manchester United fan, I suggest that a top striker should be signed. Martial is not a striker. And he is too lackadaisical, too sluggish and lazy. He doesn’t possess Manchester United spirit. Sale Martial!
If Martial is not good enough, why not give Ighalo more playing time? 4 goals in 9 matches. That suggests that the guy can deliver, if given the chance. They should start him, and let us see what happens.
I think, what Giggs said about sign a sharp forward striker Man U need it .
Giggs too? No be only new striker. They also need a new pitch, and new fans. Giggs has joined the long line of people waiting to receive humble pie, served hot and fresh by Ighalo. These misfits look up to the three musketeers of mischief for mis-leadership: Gary Neville, Neil Warnock and Paul Merson.
Or wait ooo, is he stylishly implying that Man United need a new coach, so he can get back in the there? I laugh Pakistanically 🙂 🙂 🙂
