Manchester United are believed to be readying a big money move for Mainz striker Yoshinori Muto, according to the The Guardian.
United's goalscoring woes are well documented this season, with the club labouring in front of goal of late.
Muto has supposedly been recommended by former manager Sir Alex Ferguson, with the Japan international in impressive form in the Bundesliga this campaign.
The 23-year-old has seven league goals to his name this season, including a hat-trick in the enjoyable 3-3 draw with Augsburg back in October.
His goalscoring form has contributed to a WhoScored rating of 7.02 in Germany's top tier this term.
