2) Christian Benteke (Aston Villa)
Secondly, United look set to try to solve their problems up front by joining the running to sign Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke. The Belgian international was in fine form for Villa last season as they narrowly escaped relegation, and The Sun claims United may be ready to pay his £32.5m release clause, having considered moves for the likes of Harry Kane and Gonzalo Higuain, who would be too expensive at reported fees of £45m and £67m, respectively. With The Sun adding that Robin van Persie is close to leaving for Fenerbahce, Benteke could be an ideal replacement and an important buy for the club.
