Report: Manchester United Eyes Harry Kane as Top Target on Six-Man Striker Shortlist

Manchester United Transfer News:-

Manchester United is reportedly targeting a new striker from a six-man shortlist for the upcoming summer transfer window.

The Red Devils are looking to bolster their attacking options in order to compete for major trophies next season.

Despite Man United being heavily linked with Tottenham’s Harry Kane, it remains unclear whether Spurs would be willing to sell their star player to a Premier League rival.

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is believed to be reluctant to do business with a Premier League rival, and Man United are said to be wary of being drawn into a long transfer saga.

Nonetheless, the England captain remains the leading target for the Red Devils, according to the Manchester Evening News.

Napoli’s Victor Osimhen has also been strongly linked with a move to Old Trafford, with the Nigeria international having helped fire his side to Serie A title success during the 2022-23 campaign.

However, Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis has insisted that Osimhen will not be leaving the Italian club during this summer’s transfer window.

Another player on Man United’s shortlist is Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani.

The France international’s future is the subject of speculation, with Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, and Real Madrid also reportedly interested in the forward.

Atalanta BC’s Rasmus Hojlund is also reportedly being watched, with the Denmark international having scored eight goals and registered three assists in 30 appearances this season.

Benfica’s Goncalo Ramos has also been linked with a switch to Old Trafford after making a strong impression for Portugal at the 2022 World Cup.

He has scored 25 goals and provided 11 assists in 43 appearances at club level this season and is believed to be on the radar of a number of European clubs this summer.

Finally, Ajax’s Mohammed Kudus completes the alleged list.

The 22-year-old is well-known to Man United head coach Erik ten Hag following their time together in Amsterdam.

Kudus has scored 18 goals and registered five assists in 38 appearances for the Dutch giants this season and could be available for a relatively low fee in the upcoming market.

It remains to be seen which striker Man United will ultimately sign, but the club is determined to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season.

The team’s attacking options have been a key area of concern, and a new striker could be just what they need to mount a serious challenge for major trophies in the 2023-24 campaign.
