Manchester United will be spending big this transfer window as they return to the Champions League and need to invest in their squad.

The hottest property in English football, at least in terms of strikers, Christian Benteke saved Aston Villa from relegation and took them all the way to the FA Cup final. The 23-year-old seems to have recovered from the nasty injury which saw him miss the World Cup and seems to be at his best all over again.

His second half performance for Villa was impressive and he could fill the hole that Van Persie would create. Strong in the air with decent pace and finishing ability, Benteke seems to have a release clause of £30 million and going by his performances that would be the right price for the talented youngster.
