Man Utd ‘want either Harry Kane or Erling Haaland transfer this summer as striker replacements for Anthony Martial’


ERLING HAALAND and Harry Kane are reportedly Manchester United’s top targets if they decide to replace Anthony Martial in the summer.

The French striker is fighting for his future as an unproductive season comes to an end.

With just seven goals in all competitions, he has struggled to keep his place in the team amid Edinson Cavani’s arrival on the scene.

And the Mirror report on a potentially huge deal being considered if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to make a change.

Borussia Dortmund star Haaland and Tottenham’s Kane are named as being on the Red Devils’ radar.

A fee of around £150million has been touted for the Norwegian, who became the fastest-ever player to hit 20 Champions League goals in the week.

That record was taken off Kane and the Spurs star notched a brace of his own against Dinamo Zagreb last night.

Whether or not Martial can find some consistency, a new striker may be needed at Old Trafford anyway with Cavani out of contract.

Solskjaer is fighting to keep the Uruguayan after the player’s dad revealed his unhappiness in England.

But SunSport have revealed that he is still waiting on a decision from United regarding his future.

Cavani was absent for the draw with AC Milan on Thursday, a game which saw Martial limp off with an injury concern of his own.

The former Monaco forward had threatened to put a decent run together before the blow, given injuries to Cavani and Marcus Rashford.

A strong outing in the Manchester derby led to Solskjaer remarking: “Anthony was absolutely superb today, he was the Anthony of old.

“Today he rediscovered himself, he was really strong on the ball and positive.”

Last month, PAOK youngster Christos Tzolis was linked with United as a cheaper alternative for the upcoming transfer market.
