Manchester United Chief Ed Woodward has given the green light for a £125million double swoop for Kai Havertz and Thomas Muller in January when the transfer window reopens.
Manchester United are looking forward to build a stronger attack and they have identified the pair to do that.
The two players are at very different stages of their careers but would both provide Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with important attributes he is crying out for.
Both like to play in the advanced more behind the main centre forward, with Havertz more of an attacking midfielder and Muller a support striker.
Havertz turned 20 in June but has been a regular in the Bayer first team for the last three years. He scored 20 goals last season from midfield and set up a further seven, breaking into the senior national team.
United spent on Harry Maguire in the summer and surely the minimum fee Leicester would demand should the Red Devils go after James Maddison.
Muller, would provide some much-needed trophy-winning experience at Old Trafford.
He has won a total of 16 major trophies in his career including eight Bundesligas, the Champions League and the World Cup.
And at 30, he would surely be the ideal mentor to the likes of Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford but young enough to still offer plenty to a team desperate to return to the glory days of yesteryear.
