5 replacements for Alexis Sanchez at Manchester United
#3 Hirving Lozano (PSV Eindhoven)
When he rattled the net against Germany following a swift counter-attack in a FIFA World Cup group stage game, Hirving Lozano became a household name throughout the globe. The Mexican international was one of the best players in the football carnival held in Russia. It comes hardly as a surprise to see clubs like Chelsea and Barcelona desiring to have him on their respective teamsheets.
Prior to the World Cup, Lozano’s 17 goals and 11 assists helped PSV Eindhoven clinch the Dutch Eredivisie title in season 2017/18. He has successfully replicated his form in the current campaign, with 9 goals and 4 assists in 13 games.
Hirving Lozano possesses exactly an attribute that Man United need; he is an awesome crosser of the ball. The Red Devils have no shortage of tall players in their line-up and his delicious crosses will be put to justice more than most of the time by the likes of Pogba, Lukaku and Martial. He makes 1.5 successful crosses on an average per game.
Lozano is a threat to reckon on goal as he notches an impressive average of 3.3 shots per game. He also makes 1.9 dribbles per game and 2 key passes per game. He is also fouled 3.5 times on an average per game, which tells us how troublesome he is for the defenders on the pitch.
As mentioned before, the 23-year-old has no shortage of suitors and Manchester United should make desperate attempts if they want to bring him aboard.
