Man Utd transfer news LIVE: Red Devils face Fernandez competition from Chelsea, Diogo Costa latest, Forest win reaction

MANCHESTER UNITED are going into the winter transfer window with the club looking for a long-term replacement for David de Gea.

Porto stopper Diogo Costa, 23, is one of the top names linked with the club.

United are also after a new No 9 and could explain why they were so slow getting involved in a deal for Cody Gakpo, who is heading for Liverpool in a £37million deal.

Gakpo is certainly not an outright striker and after losing Cristiano Ronaldo, United are in the market for a goalscorer – infamously the toughest position on the pitch to fill.

United beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 thanks to a sublime performance from Casemiro and goals from Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Fred.
