Manchester United increasingly have issues at both ends of the pitch.
They have conceded as many goals as Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. Seven have gone in during February alone across four matches against Crystal Palace, Everton, Ipswich Town and Spurs. As for scoring, Wolverhampton Wanderers have managed four more than them despite sitting 17th in the table after losing 17 league matches.
Andre Onana is again under the spotlight, as is Rasmus Hojlund, amid the revival of Joshua Zirkzee. Here is a selection of the latest United transfer rumours linking the club with signing a goalkeeper and striker.

Ratcliffe 'priority'
Sir Jim Ratcliffe reportedly prioritises recruiting a high-impact signing this summer to lead the Ineos project at United. According to Fichajes, Harry Kane is said to be his 'big bet' and who Ratcliffe reputedly wants the project to revolve around, with the businessman 'determined to do everything he can' to make that happen.
MEN Sport says: Kane's release clause reportedly reducing to £54million for the next winter transfer window somewhat complicates any summer move from Bayern Munich - as does the player's insistence about being happy in Bavaria. The striker turns 32 this summer, so should not be a priority.
United centre on Trafford
James Trafford is reportedly emerging as a top target for United as a potential replacement for Onana and Altay Bayindir. CaughtOffside claims the club would be willing to offer a five-year contract to the former Manchester City goalkeeper, who Newcastle United have previously tried to sign.
MEN Sport says: Trafford could conceivably be the England number one of the future and is enjoying a remarkable season in the Championship with Burnley. The goalkeeper is close to besting United's record for the most consecutive clean sheets in men's professional English football and could well be their long-term answer in goal.
