Moussa Dembele tops a six-man wish list for Manchester United.

We told recently how the Red Devils were considering a move for the ex-Celtic striker and could bid as early as January.

The Frenchman has been in good form for Lyon but was recently dropped to the bench.

This has reportedly left a sour taste in the player's mouth and, according to reports, he would consider moving back to England in a few short months.

Now the Daily Mail are claiming Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and United have put together a list of players they hope to sign - and Dembele heads it up.

Any potential switch would land the Hoops a hefty windfall after his £20million move from Glasgow to Lyon.

According to the Mail, Mario Mandzukic is also on their list of wanted men.

The English giants are in desperate need of firepower with Marcus Rashford their only attacker fit and fighting.

Even then, he has only scored three goals in 13 games this term.

Anthony Martial remains sidelined and Man U have started the season in dreadful fashion - sitting just two points off the drop zone in 12th.
