With the January transfer window officially open, Manchester United football club, under the management of Erik ten Hag, is actively seeking to bolster their attacking options. The team currently finds itself in the 7th position on the Premier League table after a disappointing start to the 2023/2024 season, having played 20 matches.
The struggle to find the back of the net has been evident, with players like Antony, Facundo Pellistri, and Anthony Martial failing to make a significant impact. In response to this, Manchester United is eyeing an improvement in their attacking lineup and has been linked to a potential move for the seasoned Real Sociedad forward, Mikel Oyarzabal.
Oyarzabal, a 26-year-old Spain International, has been a key member of the Real Sociedad team since his promotion to the first-team squad in 2020. His noteworthy contributions during the 2022/2023 season included four goals and one assist in 28 appearances across all competitions.

In the ongoing 2023/2024 season, Oyarzabal has continued to impress, scoring 10 goals and providing one assist in the 26 matches he has played. His outstanding performances on the wings have captured the attention of Manchester United, as reported by Transfer News Live.
According to the reports, Manchester United is genuinely interested in securing Oyarzabal and is willing to meet his €60 million release clause to facilitate the transfer. Manager Erik ten Hag is reportedly seeking an upgrade in the wing position, identifying Oyarzabal as a potential improvement over current options like Antony and Facundo Pellistri.
However, whether Manchester United will submit the proposed €60 million bid to sign Oyarzabal from Real Sociedad remains uncertain, pending developments before the closure of the transfer window.
