Overview

• Multiple reports say United have identified Retegui as a centre‑forward option as they look to boost their attack.
• The suggested fee sits in the €50–60m (£44m–£52m) range, and no formal offer or club confirmation has been reported.
• Retegui left Atalanta for Al-Qadsiah in the summer after a 28-goal season and has started in Saudi with three goals in four league matches.
• United recently added Benjamin Sesko yet have only nine goals in seven Premier League games, a return cited in the reporting as a driver for exploring striker additions.
• Crystal Palace’s Jean‑Philippe Mateta is mentioned as an alternative near €50m, while Al-Qadsiah’s recent signing of Retegui and his contract to 2028 could complicate any deal.
