FORMER Manchester United star Dion Dublin has urged the club to snub a move for Harry Kane and go for his England team-mate.
The Red Devils reportedly view the Tottenham star as their priority for the summer transfer window.
The club have already started to make moves to bring him in and are ready to give Kane £300,000-a-week.
However, Dublin, who played 15 times for Man Utd, thinks that the club should instead go for Brentford captain Ivan Toney.
Dublin told William Hill: “In my opinion, he is good enough to go and play for Manchester United, and I think he’d only get better if he went there.
“Erik ten Hag likes a big striker and they need a proven goalscorer so maybe they should take a look at Ivan Toney.”
