Manchester United are reportedly considering a move for one of Cristiano Ronaldo's new teammates in Saudi Arabia.
The Red Devils have been widely linked with a number of forwards since the Portuguese forward's contract was mutually terminated in November 2022.

Some of the names mentioned in recent weeks include Atletico Madrid star Joao Felix and Cody Gakpo.
However, with the latter joining Liverpool and the former's price tag remaining steep, United could be forced to look elsewhere for cheaper alternatives.
The Daily Mail reports that a loan move for Al Nassr star Vincent Aboubakar could now be an option.
It is believed the Cameroon international could lose his first-team spot in Saudi Arabia after Ronaldo joined, so a short-term deal could be ideal for both parties.
Aboubakar claimed in November that he could do what Egypt superstar Mohamed Salah does if he had the opportunity to play for a "big club".
United boss Erik ten Hag recently revealed additional information on the Premier League giants' striker search.

"I think we have a good team when all the players are available, but with many games coming up, I think there is a need [for a new striker]," the Dutch tactician said, per ESPN.
"But you need one who can have an impact, otherwise you are just burning money and you don't strengthen the squad.
"It doesn't help you."
