Unsuccessful targets: Welbeck wanted by Ten Hag for Man Utd

Danny Welbeck, who is a player renowned in the Premier League for his spells at Manchester United, Arsenal and currently Brighton & Hove Albion, has attracted the attention of some suitors in recent months.

The 33-year-old knows English football well and is having a very good season at the AMEX Stadium, scoring six goals and providing one assist in ten competitive matches so far.

Manchester United, for whom the striker played a total of eight seasons at various levels, were one of those willing to fight for his services but we will have to wait and see if interest in his transfer continues in the coming weeks.

It was Dutch manager Erik ten Hag who was keen to make a bid for his talent in the next transfer window. With his sacking, it remains to be seen whether the next coach believes Welbeck fits into the team's future plans.
