Man United: Fenerbahce make Robin van Persie transfer announcement
If the Dutchman completes a move to the Turkish side then it will leave Wayne Rooney as the only senior striker at Old Trafford, meaning manager Louis van Gaal will have to sign a replacement.
Here are five reported United targets he could do well to bring to the Red Devils…
5) Edinson Cavani, PSG
The Daily Express has reported on the Red Devils’ desire to sign the 28-year-old, who is understood to be frustrated at playing second fiddle to Zlatan Ibrahimovic in Paris [Mirror].
After scoring 27 goals in 54 games last season, he would be a fine acquisition.
4) Karim Benzema, Real Madrid
Despite netting 22 times in 47 matches in the last campaign, the France international could still be let go to make room for Sergio Aguero at the Bernabeu [Metro].
The Red Devils are lurking, according to the Daily Star.
3) Diafra Sakho, West Ham
The Senegal hitman managed 12 in 26 last time round, in a season beset by injury problems and his first in England. They are the kind of stats that have piqued United’s interest, with the Daily Mail reporting that United are interested in the West Ham United hitman.
2) Alexandre Lacazette, Lyon
27 goals in 33 Ligue 1 games weren’t enough to fire OL to the title, but was enough for Lacazette to be named top goalscorer ahead of Edinson Cavani and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. United, along with Liverpool, Chelsea, and Arsenal are all keen according to the Daily Express.
1) Harry Kane, Tottenham
Harry Kane managed a miraculous 32 goals in all competitions for Spurs in Mauricio Pochettino’s debut season, and the Red Devils have been linked by Sky Sports as a result. However, it may be risky to sign the 21-year-old before seeing if he can continue his form in the next campaign.
