Erik ten Hag and Man Utd board split over Harry Kane transfer with three other top strikers targeted

Ten Hag, 53, is a huge fan of Harry Kane and is very keen to sign the Tottenham talisman this summer.

According to The Athletic, however, not all United board members feel the same.

Spurs are set to demand huge money for Kane, despite his contract expiring at the end of next season.

The England skipper also turns 30 next month, with some at Old Trafford wanting a younger signing.

It was reported earlier this week that the Red Devils have given up on signing Kane.

Despite Ten Hag’s wishes, they are now set to pursue a trio of younger targets.

Atalanta ace Rasmus Hojlund is on United’s wishlist, after scoring nine goals in Serie A last term.

The Dane won’t come cheap, however, with Atalanta reportedly after £86m for their 20-year-old starlet.

Eintracht Frankfurt ace Randal Kolo Muani is also on United’s shortlist.

The 24-year-old is coming off the back of an impressive first season in the Bundesliga, bagging 15 goals and laying on 14 assists.

Kolo Muani also played in the World Cup for France, providing an assist for Kylian Mbappe in the final.

Also on United’s radar is Napoli sensation Victor Osimhen.

The Nigerian is likely to be out of their price range, however, with Napoli set to demand more than £100m for their star man.
