Krzysztof Piątek has taken Serie A by storm after joining Genoa for around £3.59 million from Polish side Cracovia.

The young Polish striker is leading the Serie A scoring chart with 13 goals in 17 matches, 2 goals ahead of 5-times Ballon d'Or winner, Cristiano Ronaldo, and has notched 19 goals in 19 appearances in all competitions.

The youngster scored an astonishing four goals on his debut for Genoa in the Coppa Italia, including a 19-minute hat-trick in Coppa Italia against Lecce, and became the first player to score in 7 consecutive Serie A matches since Gabriel Batistuta in the 1994-95 season.

Robert Lewandowski may be nearing an end to his illustrious career, but the good news is that the Polish have an able replacement in the young Genoa striker. Nobody knew of the exciting Polish sensation, but his incredible goal scoring record has made him one of the most talked about players in European football.

The youngster's pace, hold up play, and ability to shoot from long range could open up defenses and add more goals to Manchester United's play, as he will be lining up with a lot of attacking talent at Old Trafford.
