In the video below, Manchester United legend Paul Scholes reveals who his ideal striker would be to replace Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

 

While Scholes thinks the 35-year-old should stay another year, he reckons Zlatan will be used less often next season and another striker should be brought in for the longer term.

And the Red Devils legend believes that signing should be Atletico Madrid and France striker Antoine Griezmann .

At 25 years old, the Frenchman would be at his peak by the time Zlatan left Old Trafford - an exciting thought for a player who has already established himself on the world's biggest stage.

The France international has scored an impressive 50 goals in 85 La Liga appearances for the Spanish outfit.

Speaking on BT Sport prior to Manchester United's Europa League tie against Feyenoord, Scholes said: "I think Griezmann would be up there.

"He looks a top centre forward at Atletico and I think we have to be in the market for someone like that."
