Manchester United reportedly have a six-man striker shortlist for the summer, with Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane remaining the club's leading target in the final third of the field.
The Red Devils will move for a new number nine in the upcoming market, as head coach Erik ten Hag looks to put together a team capable of challenging for the biggest prizes next season.
Man United continue to be heavily linked with Kane, who only has a contract at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium until the end of next season.
According to the Manchester Evening News, the England captain remains the leading target for the Red Devils, but it is still unclear whether Spurs would be willing to sell their star player this summer.
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 dragged into a long transfer saga.
Napoli's Victor Osimhen has also been strongly linked with a move to Old Trafford, with the Nigeria international firing his side to Serie A title success during the 2022-23 campaign.
However, Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis has insisted that the Nigeria international will not be leaving the Italian club during this summer's transfer window.
Alongside Kane and Osimhen, Eintracht Frankfurt's Randal Kolo Muani is said to be on the shortlist, with the France international's future currently the subject of speculation.
Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have been heavily linked with the forward, while a recent report claimed that Real Madrid had also joined the race for his signature.
Atalanta BC's Rasmus Hojlund is also reportedly being watched, with the Denmark international scoring eight goals and registering three assists in 30 appearances this term.
Benfica's Goncalo Ramos has also been linked with a switch to Old Trafford, with the centre-forward making a strong impression for Portugal at the 2022 World Cup.
Ramos has 25 goals and 11 assists in 43 appearances at club level this term, meanwhile, and he is believed to be on the radar of a number of European clubs this summer.
Ajax's Mohammed Kudus completes the alleged list, with the 22-year-old well-known to Man United head coach 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 term and could be available for a relatively low fee in the upcoming market. body check tags ::
