Man Utd boss Ten Hag puts Forson on notice as he admits: I wanted January striker signing

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag admits his squad is a striker short with the market now shut.
Ten Hag concedes he wanted to see a striker signed in January.
"It's not a secret I wanted a striker," Ten Hag said. "With the injury to Martial, we don't really have the back-up. But it wasn't possible because we have to match the FFP (financial fair play) rules.
"There are some disadvantages with FFP. To make space for FFP, you have to sell players and you have to sell good players and I don't think that's the way you build a team."
Rasmus Hojlund is United's only recognisable striker and Ten Hag added: "We have Omari (Forson), we have Amad Diallo.
"Of course we have (Marcus) Rashford who can play there. But I think for the rest, all the positions are occupied. We have to be a little bit creative, it's up to the No.9 position."
