How Man Utd could line up with four new stars recommended by Rio Ferdinand, including Cavani and Koulibaly – The Sun

RIO FERDINAND has named the four players Manchester United must sign this January if they are to snatch a top-four spot in the Premier League.

The Old Trafford legend, 41, took to Twitter to have his say – with Edinson Cavani and Kalidou Koulibaly topping his list.

United are desperately lacking a clinical, experienced striker – and Ferdinand believes Paris Saint-Germain misfit Cavani, 32, is the best option.

Writing on social media, Ferdinand claimed: "Just thinking… I would 100 per cent go & get Edinson Cavani.

"Huge experience, goalscorer, work ethic and great pro who the younger players in the squad would learn a lot from!"

Man Utd do have Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial, but both lack a clinical edge and are far more dangerous cutting in from the left flank.

Mason Greenwood is the only other central striking option, but aged only 18 lacks the required experience to consistently lead a Premier League attack.

Meanwhile, United are in serious need of a solid centre-back start alongside Harry Maguire, despite with Victor Lindelof currently the only option due to injuries.
