Erik ten Hag is desperate to sign a top centre forward this summer and he had identified Harry Kane as his priority.

However, United are pessimistic about their chances of convincing Spurs to part with Kane.

The club will not allow themselves to get dragged into a saga over their interest in Kane and it’s already apparent that Daniel Levy would not sell to a Premier League rival.

As such, United are already moving on and Bild report they’re ready to submit a bid for Muani.

The Frankfurt striker bagged 23 goals in 45 matches last season and impressed at the World Cup with France.

Muani has been attracting attention from Bayern Munich, given their desire to sign a traditional centre forward.

Real Madrid are also now on the lookout for a striker following Karim Benzema’s decision to move to Saudi Arabia.

United, therefore, have to move quickly but there biggest competitor comes from Paris Saint-Germain.

The Ligue 1 winners have already lost Lionel Messi this summer, while Neymar is also set to depart.

A return to France is likely to appeal to Muani, who has been in Germany since 2022.
