United find striker option

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson appears to have uncovered an option for a new striker during January's transfer window.

Sources in Sweden and Italy claim United will test Internazionale's resolve to hang onto Goran Slavkovski.

Dubbed 'The new Zoran Ibrahimovic', the 17-year-old is Inter's youngest-ever player at Serie A level and has a number of international countries chasing his services due to his Balkan background.

Ferguson is desperate to add a new forward to his squad, a point highlighted by John O'Shea and Darren Fletcher being the only viable alternatives to injured duo Cristiano Ronaldo and Louis Saha during the 1-1 draw with Chelsea on Sunday.

Alan Smith has yet to get back to his best after injury, and would have left on loan but for rejecting the opportunity, and Giuseppe Rossi was surprisingly farmed out to Newcastle United.

Although Rossi is likely to return to Old Trafford in the New Year and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is set to be available again soon, United remain short of attackers and Slavkovski is believed to be one of the names on Ferguson's hit-list.
