Double deal close: Man United "advancing" in talks to sign Premier League duo
Briefly

Manchester United is reportedly advancing on transfers for Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap and Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo amid a tough season. Currently sitting 16th in the league, the Red Devils face considerable challenges, despite reaching the Europa League final. Manager Ruben Amorim recognizes the need for major squad enhancements, especially targeting players that can replace underperformers like Rasmus Hojlund and Marcus Rashford. Competition for Delap from Chelsea adds to the urgency, but his preference tilts towards United, which indicates potential significant alterations in United's attacking lineup soon.
Liam Delap looks like he'd be an upgrade on Nicolas Jackson at Stamford Bridge, while he also has connections with some key figures at the club.
Even if Man Utd are in the Europa League final and possibly set to clinch Champions League qualification, Amorim will surely be under no illusions that major work is needed in the transfer market.
If Semenyo joins as well, that looks like a far more dangerous attack developing, with Amorim also in need of upgrades on flops and misfits like Marcus Rashford and Antony.
It's been a nightmare season at Old Trafford, with the club losing yet again in the league this weekend to stay 16th in the table.
