Manchester United are plotting a sensational attempt to sign Harry Kane, according to reports. The Cristiano Ronaldo saga finally reached its conclusion on Tuesday as the Portugal international left Old Trafford for the second time after agreeing to terminate his contract.
Losing the 37-year-old appeared inevitable after his explosive interview with Piers Morgan but leaves a void in United’s attacking options. Erik ten Hag has played Marcus Rashford through the middle this season but he is not regarded as an out-and-out striker.
Anthony Martial is another who can be described as a hybrid between centre-forward and winger, making the Red Devils’ task straightforward in the transfer market. The rumour mill is already beginning to churn ahead of the January window as United chiefs aim to replace Ronaldo - last season’s top goalscorer.
