Erik ten Hag's preference is to sign another attacker as Manchester United hold discussions over Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund.
Ten Hag wants an out-and-out striker and a forward who can play across the front three amid doubts over the futures of a number of United attackers.
Hojlund, 20, is United's principal No.9 target after they were discouraged from bidding for Tottenham talisman Harry Kane and the club's football director John Murtough has held extensive talks with Atalanta.
